Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had a c-section 2.5 years ago at 26 weeks. Am having sharp burning pain on my right side near my hip. No ovarian cysts detected, speculation is scar tissue is causing the pain. The pain is quite severe at times- can scar tissue really be causing such a drastic sensation?

Usually scar tissue per se does not. 1.But if there s a nerve entrapped in it, it may cause. 2. Infection in the scar tissue may also cause pain 3. Hypertrophy sometimes may cause pain too 4. As you said you have been detected with a cyst, infection or pull/ of the cyst on the surrounding tissue may also cause pain
