What Is The Severe Lower Abdominal Pain And Leg Pain?

Hello, Im 22 years of age. I have had no children. I have a marina coil fitted. I had a 'period' last week which was very light but lasted for over 2 weeks. I have been feeling tired, withdrawn and tetchy. My legs have been a bit jumpy and i have had slight pain in one of my calves. I am now experiencing itermittent pain within my lower abdomen, mainlly on my left quadrant but also effecting the right side. At times the pain is enough to force me to hunch to be able to walk.. Thanks for your time. Its much appreciated.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read the history and understood the problems.
Female 22 with Merina Coil fitted has pain in both sides of the abdomen, pain in one of the calf, feeling tired, withdrawn and Tetchy.

The probable reasons can be :
Colitis - causes pain in both sides of abdomen, causes electrolyte imbalance and other symptoms you have.
PID- Pelvic Inflammatory disease
Merina Coli can assist in causing PID and pains in abdomen.

I would advise you the following:
-Ultrasonography of the abdomen to see for the proper position of the intra-uterine coil, PID, colitis and appendicitis.
-Tests of blood, urine, stool
-Colonoscopy and CT scan of the abdomen only if required .

-Get a course of an antibiotic and metronidazole and symptomatic and supportive medicines in consultation with a Gynecologist and an Examination by a General Surgeon.
