What Causes Abdominal Pain While Suffering From An Enlarged Uterus?

My mother was diagnosed with an enlarged uterus a few months ago and was told to follow up but did not. She is 77 and is now having a lot of pain in her entire abdominal area and feels that something has dropped to the point where she can almost feel it vaginally. I am very concerned, can you give me any information about this as it is affecting her bladder, bowels and stomach seems to be swollen as well

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It seems to be a case of uterine prolapse. Get her evaluated by a gynecologist. She might be a candidate for surgery.
