Could Pressure In Uterus Post Removal Of Fibroid Tumor Indicate Recurring Diverticulitis?

i am 60 years old and have a pressure in my uterus-i had this before and it was a fybroid tumor which i had removed-that was 5 years ago-i had an internal ultra sound a few days ago and the doctor said there were no masses at all and suggested that maybe it was my diverticulitis acting up so i did a round of my antibiotics but got no relief. i am so frustrated cause i am so uncomfortable and it also feels like something is staying open-he also said that my uterine wall was 5 and that normal was 3 abd he wanted to do a biopsy but that wasnt what was causing my pain

Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the pressure in uterus post removal of fibroid indicate various possibilities such as:
- Intestine colic
- Developing incisional hernia at operative site
- Urinary bladder calculus or cystitis
- Recurrent fibroid if uterus is still in situ
- Others

However, chances of diverticulitis do not sound any way by this much narration in the query. In my clinic, I do recommend an Ultrasound of the abdomen and pelvis for best evaluation of the underlying cause and guide in accordance to that only.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
