Question 1

will a pelvic ultrasound make you sore the next day?

Accepted Answer

It can: Sometimes if it was done transvaginally. Symptoms should resolve in a day or two.

Question 2

enlarged auxillary node for 6 months seems sore about 2 weeks prior to period is this normal? ultrasound and mammo came back normal

Accepted Answer

Can be...: The area that you describe may NOT be an axillary (armpit) lymph node, but a piece of milk-making breast tissue that "got lost" and stayed in your armpit rather than joining with the rest of your breast.  This is called "ectopic breast tissue," is very common, looks normal by ultrasound (because IT IS normal breast tissue).  Ectopic tissue swells before periods.  Diagram shows areas it's found.

Question 3

i have a sore in vagina from transvaginal ultrasound since dec. it won't heal?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: Sores that don't heal are very worrisome and can even be a sign of cancer. You need to be seen and examined by a GYN as soon as possible. Good luck. Hope this is something simple and you feel better fast.

Question 4

my tailbone still sore and have pain during sitting physiotherapy suggested through ultrasound is that good way to treat ?

Accepted Answer

It might but...: Why does your tailbone hurt why do other places hurt? Is you tailbone broken or dislocated? Do you have arthritis or fibromyalgia or some other painful condition? If you don't have a diagnosis you might get lucky or you might not. See a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation!  they can best cover all your bases.

Question 5

testicular problems. pain a month ago. had ultrasound. now weak erection, occassional soreness and no pleasure from masturbation. causes?

Accepted Answer

See answer: The most common reason for a change in erection quality in a teenager or young adult associated with some degree of variable discomfort in the testicle(s), penis, and/or lower pelvic area would be a non-infectious inflammation or irritation of the prostate. This could secondarily cause psychological concerns, anxiety, fears, etc contributing to the problem. Not serious but can be complex to treat.

Question 6

3-1/2" oval lump lower left rib,soft,not moveable.soft fat, sore if push on bottom rib.x-ray had nothing.ultrasound next.ideas what is or best tests?

Accepted Answer

Lipoma?: may be a soft, benign (not cancer)  fatty tumor called a lipoma.  If stable for many years these can usually be watched .  If new, you should have it seen by an MD. The only way to be 100% sure is with a biopsy

Question 7

i think i have done something to my 5th metatarsal, very sore, cannot walk properly. just had an xray & ultrasound - both clear. what could the issue?

Accepted Answer

Metatarsalgia.: Just because the x-ray and ultrasound are "clear" does not mean the metatarsal is not injured. Aa rather recent injury may not display evidence, especially in stress injuries. If it is hard to walk, then don't do it. If you must use a cam walker boot to help stabilize the area and allow the involved tissues to recover. Rethink the possibility of overuse of the foot causing a metatarsalgia problem.

Question 8

my calf and knee and thigh have been chronically sore for months, i have taken some long haul flights and had ultrasounds they were negative. ?

Accepted Answer

I wouldn't worry.: Get some exercise for your legs.  If there is no blood clot now, there may have been at some time.  Check your electrolytes also; this may be similar to nightly muscle spasm.

Question 9

ultrasound on testicles, and came back with very small varicocele, but i do have some heavy like soreness in the testicles.. does this mean surgery?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily : Surgery is usually a last resort for varicocele, in an attempt to improve fertility or relieve more severe symptoms. A consultation with a urologist would give you a more complete evaluation. Hope this helps!

Question 10

my right calf is sore and itchy. there is nothing on the skin itself. i had an ultrasound done on the entire leg and blood flow is normal. help?

Accepted Answer

No DVT: Not sure why you have the itching. Your negative US means it's probably not caused by deep vein thrombosis. If the itching is really problematic, then have a clinician check it out. Hope that helps.
