Hi doctor,
I have been experiencing back and abdomen pain for the past five to six days. Also, I have a white discharge.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
Back pain with white discharge could be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease or infection of the pelvic organs. Bacteria usually causes it. It is important to begin treatment as soon as possible to avoid future complications. You must conduct the investigations I have written to determine the cause. Also, begin the treatment as advised. It is recommended that you use a condom if you are sexually active.

Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
Can I start taking this medication before the tests?
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
It is preferable to begin the medications after the tests have been completed. However, it is best to start medications sooner if the pain is severe.
