Question 1

what should i do when i have a hernia and a ovarian cyst?

Accepted Answer

Informed decision: You should consider how you feel, the chaces the disease will get worse, and the accuracy of the diagnosis. There are some excellent hernia surgeons in Columbus if you wanted a consultation. 500 18th Street, Suite A-30 Columbus, GA 31901 (706) 660-2950. Hope this helps!

Question 2

what foods can you eat if you have both an ovarian cyst, hernia and two spotings on the kidney and bm area organ?

Accepted Answer

Healthy foods: I don't know of any foods that would affect an ovarian cyst.  But definitely it seems that a lot of your health issues come from abdomen area.  Make sure to eat a lot of fiber.  I'm likely kale salads right now.  Blueberries are another super food that's in season now. But fiber to keep your intestines regular is #1. Also stay well hydrated with water in these summer months.

Question 3

i want to know if my ovarian cyst is causing problems i have pain all the time and bulging they said it was not a hernia.

Accepted Answer

Seek add Med opinion: If you are having pain all the time need to see an internist and get an imaging study to be sure something else is not going on. A twisted ovary is a dangerous situation and must be R/O.

Question 4

how can i tell the difference between a hernia and ovarian cyst? it hasnt been painful until now and its only slight stinging

Accepted Answer

Hernia: Hernia has a noticeable bulge in contour of abdomen. Generally sight of discomfort.

Question 5

could a hiatal hernia be caused by ovarian cysts? i had them at same time before, have hernia again, am curious if it's likely more cysts formed too.

Accepted Answer

No: Ovarian cysts do not cause hiatal hernias and ovarian cysts do not cause hiatal hernias.  It is an unlucky coincidence.

Question 6

why would my doc change my pelvic ultrasound to a ct scan? they thought it was a ovarian cyst. but the pain occurred on 11/10 after lifting at the gym. would scan show a hernia or a cyst if thats the issue? im on low dose bcp?

Accepted Answer

: I am not able to read your Drs mind today even with
Telemedicie. ;-) Dr humor.  Scan will show more

Question 7

how common is it for within a year one ct states left ovarian cyst and 6 months later left inguinal fatty hernia no mention of ovarian cyst. diff rad?

Accepted Answer

Cysts can change: Benign ovarian cysts can come and go, depending on where you are in your cycle and any past gyn conditions/medications.

Having said this, ultrasound imaging is generally a better test for ovary cysts than ct.  It can be possible the second ct missed the cyst.

Question 8

ovarian cyst ? hernia ? cancer? my lower right  pelvic region is very tender and hurts. i feel some sort of bulge or mass when walking sitting coughin

Accepted Answer

Go see a doctor: A bulge in the lower abdomen is more like a Hernia especially if it gets bigger when you cough. Yet you will not be able to make a diagnosis with having a doctor examine you and perhaps run some tests, if needed. So go see your family doctor at once.

Question 9

hi, i am having symptoms of discomfort on the right side hip, and thigh, pain in my abdomen and the pain and swelling is starting to go up on the right side - i am short so i can see it all being affected. could this be a ovarian cyst or hernia?

Accepted Answer

: It could be those things and more, many of which require urgent evaluation and treatment.  You should be evaluated as soon as possible by your PCP, GYN, Urgent Care, or hospital Emergency Department.

Question 10

a week ago, i lifted heavy item at gym. the next day my groin started hurting. mostly right. can the lifting flare up a ovarian cyst? i am on the pill. i read it could be a groin strain or hernia too. i go doc on monday for this?

Accepted Answer

: No, the heavy lifting is less likely causing the ovarian cyst rupture. You are correct when suspecting groin strain or hernia. If pain has not resolved by next Monday, see your doctor as planned.
