What Causes Sharp Pain Behind The Belly With Dizziness And Headache?

Today while lying down I had sharp pain just behind my belly button that felt pulling to my genitals. I have been dizzy on and off for about 4 weeks (and am currently) with a consistent headache. I had a urinary tract infection earlier this month and was on antibiotics. I m a 44 year old woman.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi ! Good evening, i am Dr Shareef answering your query.

With all probabilities, you might be having a PID(pelvic inflammatory disease). I would suggest you to get yourself assessed by a gynaecologist, who after a general physical examination might do some routine blood tests like a CBC, ESR,Blood sugar, and a urine routine/microscopic test followed by a culture/sensitivity test if need be. Till the test reports are ready, the treating doctor might start a broad spectrum antibiotic which could be changed depending on the culture sensitivity test report. Apart from this, an ultrasound of abdomen/pelvis might be helpful in ruling out any other pathology which could give rise to such symptoms.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
