What Causes Pain After Dermoid Cyst Removal?

I had a dermoid cyst removed in March of this year, but I still have pain on that side a couple of weeks a month. My GYN can t seem to figure out what is causing it. I m starting to feel like she thinks I m making it up. Also, I m trying to get pregnant and wondering if this will cause any problems conceiving.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain after dermoid cyst removal . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like infection after surgery or some other reasons like appendicitis , kidney or gallstone pain . I would suggest you to consult gynecologist again to rule out possibilities of post surgery complications . Although pain occur sometimes after the surgery , but in your case its been long , so consult another gynecologist . Doctor may order ultrasound , colonoscopy or MRI to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may refer you to gastroenterologist for gastric problem . For now apply warm compresses and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
