Brief Answer:
For how long has your belly been swollen? Can you provide an image?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this swollen belly. There are several possible causes of swollen belly. It would be very important too gather more information especially through physical exam to understand what is going on. I will like to review and image and also know for how long this has been going on. However, getting a full physical exam might be the necessary starting point for orientation and focused investigation and management of this condition. Please, respond to my questions.

I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

For a few days. I see my pc on the 19th. It is like premenstrual bloat, however I have no uterus and only one ovary with PCOS. It is slightly tender, but that happens often due to scarring from multiple surgeries. Urine output normal in color and frequency. How can I upload image?

Brief Answer:
Being premenstrual bloat, I will recommend the following!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Your initial question made me to think it was visible dissension of the abdomen. At this time, I will not need to review any further pictures because pictures for bloating wouldn't help.

I recommend you eat healthy, exercise at least 40mins on most days of the week, drink much fluids, eat vegetables and fruits. These would be helpful and these symptoms would slowly fade away. There is no need for any aggressive medical intervention.

Let me know if this works for you.
