Tightness Below Belly Button, Ultrasound Shows Ruptured Ovarian Cyst And Fibroid. What Could It Be?

I have terrible tightness below my belly button.. I just had an ultrasound that showed a ruptured ovarian cyst and a large penduculated fibroid . I m having an abdominal cat scan on Monday but am worried that this tightness is something bad.. I m slightly constipated and on iron supplements 3xs a day for anemia .. What could the tightness be?

hello mam,
The tightness in the lower abdomen is probably due to the ruptured cyst itself.Also a pelvic inflammatory condition cannot be ruled out.Anyways,you are getting the CAT scan which should clear the picture.
All the best
