Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had back surgery and Medtronic implant this past year/. I am now experiencing pelvic area pain. I don t know if it is muscle or nerve pain. It may come from a vaginal mesh implant that worked well for 5 years, then stopped working. I have had to exercise a lot this past year to get well. I don t know if I pulled a muscle or what. I don t know if I have to get the mesh removed.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe pelvic pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like endometriosis , muscle spasms , inflammatory disease , sexually transmitted , fibroids , irritable bowel syndrome or depression. It can also possible that the symptoms are due to post surgery complication so once consult your surgeon also to rule out that cause . I would suggest you to also consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order ultrasound , endoscopy along with stool test . Doctor may prescribe drugs like sucralfate , anti inflammatory , omeprazole , ornidazole along with laxative . Doctor may also refer you to orthopedic surgeon for muscle problem . For now eat light and non spicy , apply warm compresses to pelvis , avoid eating nuts , seafood and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
