What Causes Persistent Pain In The Shoulder Ligaments?
I am 72, having bleeding when I go to bathroom, wearing a pad & shows in both areas. I sse when I urinate.But not in stool. It is spotting on toilet paper. I have had female surgery back in 1981. I feel lower back pain and had pain lower left area my body when first started bleeding but now it isn t painful. I know that I need to see a Doctor but not sure where to start? I am visiting a small town and the health care seem questionable. Emergency rooms aren t rated well. It is Decatur, Alabama. Any advise would be helpful. Thanks

Hi,
Postmenopausal bleeding at this age should be taken seriously, and in my opinion, you should get an ultrasound pelvis and visit a Gynecologist ASAP. ER would not be of much help.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
