Can A Cyst Cause Painful Swelling On The Right Side Of The Waist?

Hi, I have a painful swollen area on the right side of my waist where my ovary is. It was very painful like an intense dull pain for a while and it faded away with painkillers. I was thinking it could ve just been the start of my period and it was period cramps but the pain was too much more intense on my right side. Could it be a cyst? Thank you

Severe pain on the right side can be due to ovarian cyst, pelvic infection, bowel infection or appendicitis. I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist for proper examination, ultrasound and treatment accordingly.
