What to eat for pelvic effusion?

What should I eat for pelvic effusion?

1. Pelvic effusion is divided into physiological pelvic effusion and pathological pelvic effusion. Because the pelvic cavity is the lowest part of the abdominal cavity in the whole body, when there is exudate or leaked fluid, it will be drained into the pelvic cavity, thus forming pelvic effusion.

The main treatment is to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
