Lower Back Pain On Left Side. Had Hysterectomy, Infections After That. Cause Of Pain?
I had hysterectomy in January...many complications afterward d/t infection (post op) in a follow up us, my left ovary was not visible...dr said that was fine...however, I have been having lower back pain on my left side for a couple of months now and today, I am in quite a bit of discomfort...not sure if it can be related to the ovary or if it is muscular pain or gas pain...
Hi ! There could be a persisting urine/pelvic infection in you which might be responsible for the pain and discomfort. I would suggest you to discuss with your treating gynaecologist if you should go for a CECT scan of the abdomen to see if there are any intra abdominal pathology left apart from being clinically examined by him/her. Wishing you an early recovery. Thanks.
