Inflammation of the Uterus Treatment

If the inflammation is caused by a chill or exposure to cold during menstruation, the patient should start the treatment with a hot leg bath. This may be replaced by hot hip bath after two or three days. In the case of pain, hot and cold hip baths will be beneficial. The water should be changed from hot to cold, every two minutes and this should be repeated twice.

As this disease produces the tendency towards constipation, a daily enema with warm water is advised.  You should also apply an alternate compress on the abdomen just before employing the enema.

In the chronic form the treatment should aim at increasing the general vitality. Starting with fasting on orange juice and water for two or three days. The procedure is to take every two hours the juice of an orange diluted with warm water on 50:50 basis. If the orange juice does not agree, juices of vegetable such as carrots and cucumber may be taken. A warm water enema may be taken each day while fasting to cleanse the bowels. After the short juice fast, the patient may adopt an all-fruit diet for about two days, taking three meals a day of fresh juicy fruits such as apples, pears, grapes, grapefruit, orange, pineapple, peaches and melon.

After the juice fast the patient should follow a well balanced diet of seeds, nuts, and grains, vegetables and fruits. This diet should be supplemented with milk, yogurt, buttermilk, vegetable oil and honey. A further short juice fast or periods on the all-fruit diet may be necessary at intervals of a month or two.  If constipation is habitual, all steps should be taken for its eradication.

The foods which should be avoided are white flour products, sugar, confectionery, rich cakes, pastries, sweets, refined cereals, flesh foods, rich, heavy and greasy foods, tinned or preserved foods, pickles, condiments, and sauces. Moderate exercise and walking in fresh air will increase general health and vitality. 

No real cure is possible unless the system as a whole is treated. The blood has to be purified, the nerves strengthened and the waste deposits accumulated in the system eliminated before the trouble can be completely overcome.
