What Causes A Dull Pain In The Pubic Region?
I am a 28 year old male. I ve been noticing a dull pain in my pubic region. Upon inspection I noticed that it seems like the right side of my pubis mound is swollen. When I inspect it with my fingers I am able to feel something deep under the skin; it feels similar to feeling swollen saliva glands when I ve got a cold, however sometimes I can t feel anything. On the left side I connot feel anything like this. When I am able to feel it with my fingers it feels kind of spongy. The dull pain is pretty constant even during those times when I can t feel the swollen gland with my fingers.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain in the pubic region. 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. I would suggest you to also consult gastroenterology for proper examination . Doctor may order endoscopy along with stool test . Doctor may prescribe drugs like sucralfate , anti inflammatory , omeprazole , ornidazole along with laxative . Doctor may also refer you to urologist for problem like UTI . For now eat light and non spicy , apply warm compresses to pelvis , avoid eating nuts , seafood and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .Doctor may also order ultrasound of pubic area .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
