Sharp Pain In The Lower Abdomen, Scan Is Normal. On Pain Killers. What Is Causing The Pain?
I've had a total hysterectomy 6 weeks ago. During week 5, I was getting severe sharp pain on the lower left part of my body a little bit above where my leg meets the trunk. I had a whopper of a 6 kg cyst on left ovary.
I'm not sure if I've pulled a muscle or what. My GP examined me and found nothing; she sent me for an ultra sound, which showed nothing abnormal, or any instruments left over from the surgery. Why am I having pain? Prescription pain killers, voltaren and Ibufeon have had no effect. What is causing the pain? Thank you

Dear patient,
you've had a hysterectomy and had a 6kg cyst. As you said, your ultrasound was normal, and you had no relief with painkillers. So its most likely a hernia you are suffering from. Kindly, ask your GP to examine you for it.
Dx. Inguinal hernia
