What Causes Abdominal Distention And Swollen Vulva?
What would make my stomach get bigger and my vulva get real big and heavy. I had a blood clot in my leg 20 years ago they put a stent in one side and they cut open the groin and repaired it. I was doing some exercises standing up and in 3 days my stomach was noticeably larger then I noticed my vulva was getting really big and heavy. I ve had 2 ultra sounds and 3 Ct scan they seem to find other stuff to fix but not the problem. I went to a valscure doctor and he said I was just getting fatter and needed to eat better. I ve been try for almost 5 months trying to find out what this is. I m at my wit ends over this. Please help.
