What Causes Uterine Cramps?
Question: I am a 67 yr. old healthy woman. I had internal hemorrhoid banding 5 days ago . I have had the feeling
of a constant uterine cramp x 4 d, 5/10. No fever. No UTI signs.
I am a ret. R.N. I am the ex-wife x 27 yrs to Family Doc. Could this be a normal referred pain from the banded hemorrhoid?
Thank you
XXXX
Brief Answer:
Post-intervention pelvic inflammation...
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear XXXXXXX
I have gone through your medical history carefully. The uterine cramps you are feeling might be related to the intervention you had (internal hemorrhoid banding). Most probably due to pelvic inflammation during the procedure as long as you do not have any fever or UTI signs.
Wish fast recovery!
