Accepted Answer

I : I can definitely understand your concern.  That is a long time to have pain, and it sounds like it has been a complicated situation.  Initially you had the kidney stone that sounds like it was successfully treated, and you then had a negative ct scan.  Now it is found that you have an ovarian cyst that is 3.5 cm.  Ovarian cysts are painful.  They can pop and rupture, leaking fluid into the peritoneal (abdomino-pelvic)space, which usually resolves on its own though it is quite painful.  Most ovarian cysts resolve on their own.  Please see a gynecologist in follow up to be sure that this is resolving.  Some women need to be treated with medications such as hormonal treatments to resolve cysts (such as oral contraceptive tablets).  If you have sudden increase in pain, fever, vomiting, or new symptoms then you would have to be seen as an emergency, but otherwise please make an appointment with a licensed gynecologist.

Question 5

i went to er with pain that resembled kidney stone.  it's a large ovarian cyst (15.4 cm x 12.6 x 17.0).  i have pcos, is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Cyst size abnormal: Gynecologist will likely advise laparoscopic unroofing, ; thereby draining the cyst. It's quite minimally invasive, specially in hands of an experienced laparoscopic surgeon.

Question 6

ct scan showed 29mm ovarian cyst likely follicular. do i need to follow up? is this large?  (coincidental finding, scanned for kidney stones).

Accepted Answer

No: Simple follicular cysts of this size don't need followup.

Question 7

adolescent. lower right chronic flank pain for 3 years. hematuria daily. history of kidney stones. clean scans minus an ovarian cyst.

Accepted Answer

Get checked,,,: There could be several reasons for this.  It could be from many bouts of infection or it could be from stones or it can be a defect in the ureter-bladder valve causing chronic reflux.  It's best to go to your doctor and get more tests like an intravenous pyelogram to scan the urinary tract and a urinalysis to check the urine due to the blood and stones.  Best of luck.

Question 8

if i did have an ovarian cyst rupture, how long does the pain last? i am completing 2 days. appendicitis and kidney stones were ruled out.

Accepted Answer

Depends: What kind of cyst was it? Cysts associated with menstrual cycles rupture every month. Visit this site for info: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/treatment-tests-and-therapies/management-of-ruptured-ovarian-cyst

Question 9

i had kidney stones removed about 7 years ago. now having the same of dull very sore flank/back/abdomen pains. could it be that or an ovarian cyst?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Need exam &amp; tests for diagnosis.

Most probably recurrence of kidney stones.

Question 10

doctor says i either have kidney stones or a ruptured ovarian cyst, and ultrasound isn't for another 2 weeks. is there a way to tell the difference?

Accepted Answer

Another doctor: The stone in the ureter is not going to be adequately diagnosed by a pelvic ultrasound. If you're continuing to have significant abdominal and pelvic pain I would see a physician willing to do the definitive study which would be a CT scan
