Pain After Ovarian Cyst Removed/ Numbness

it is normal to feel pain just try to walk around not just lay down your body needs to get use to walking or else the healing process is hard. trust me .

Hi every one, I had an ovarian cyst and an ovary removed on 14 August 2014 by laparoscopy and after two months during my mens period I am having lsevere renal pain. Is it normal

Surgery in anycase needs to be carefully thought over and truly discussed with your doctor,. When a surgical removal of a cysts are done you must remember that you surgical area is burned which can bleed out if instructions are not followed. It does take time to heal. That healing process takes time.

I am a 28 year old female and had an Laparoscopic Surgery.my incisions were made through my belly button and 2 on my left hand side. The issue was on my right hand side. It's been about a week and immediately after the procedure I had numbness on the outside of my vaginal area right below the abdomen going down my thigh. It's really starting to freak me out, I had some opinions and all kind of led to neuro issue. Seeing these posts definitely make me a feel a little better. Is this happening to anyone else? ?

I know these posts are old, but my story and info may help women who feel helpless in their pain and fearful situation. In 2013 I had major surgery to repair my one remaining fallopian tube so I can get pregnant again. It's been about a year and a half and my belly is still numb in a large area surrounding the incision. This is because they cut through a nerve. I highly doubt it'll ever stop being numb. In December of 2014, on ovulation day, I started having excruciatingly sharp pain in the area of my only ovary. The pain shot into the tip of my hip bone and radiated along the top of my pelvic bone, down the back and ended at my tail bone area. It also shot down my thigh on the same side. I went to the ER many times and all they saw were two small ovarian cysts. About two months later, a horrible burning pain started and this was in addition to the already severely sharp pain I was experiencing. This burning pain caused the hip bone pain to radiate down the front if my pelvic bone and ended in my pubic bone. After being pawned off from Dr to Dr, I finally found the most wonderful OBGYN surgeon. She was worried and did another ultrasound. One of my cysts had all of a sudden gone from being one inch to the size of a lemon. In the ultrasound, it looked like it was a hemorrhagic cysts. But, with the severity of my pain, my surgeon was worried my ovary was possibly twisted and dying. So, she got me into surgery the very next day. This was now three months after the pain started. She went in laparoscopically and found a little bit of a lot of things. The cyst was fibrous, caused by endometriosis. My fallopian tube was suck with adhesions to my bowel. There was a bit of endometriosis on the right and left side of my uterus, but luckily not inside it. My bowel had some scarring and a little endometriosis. Along with all that, my one remaining tube that was repaired in 2013, had been blocked by scar tissue. My amazing surgeon removed the cyst, scar tissue/adhesions, endometriosis, and unblocked my tube. She cured my pain, she's my hero! One reason why I wanted to post all of this is to let you know that it's possible to actually get rid of the pain and save your reproductive organs so you can still get pregnant. If course, there are different circumstances for some, but not for all. My surgeon was specially trained to remove ovarian cysts THE CORRECT WAY, with little to no damage to the ovary. Apparently, in medical school they're taught to just rip the cyst from the ovary wall, which will cause damage. My surgeon was trained to gently tease it away from the ovarian wall and stay away from the egg reserve as much as possible. It takes a long time to do such delicate work, but if you still want kids it's definitely worth it! One other thing I want to mention is, each month when an egg is developing in the ovary, it develops inside a cyst. But, at that point it's called a follicle. Once you've ovulated, the follicle is then called a cyst. They typically go away on their own. I've had them linger a little, sometimes for months, since I started puberty. Anyway, my first period since my surgery started a couple days ago. For the first time, I'm feeling cramps the way normal women do. I am having ovary pain, but that's normal this soon after surgery. Also, my period is heavier than I've ever had, insanely heavy. But, that's normal after this surgery as well. I hope this info helps any of you put your mind at ease and educates you a little about what you may be going through. There's hope! I personally recommend the laparoscopic surgery, but only if you find a surgeon who specializes in this sort of thing, one who's had additional training in making sure they're as careful and gentle as humanly possible.

I am 2 weeks post-surgery for torsion of both ovaries and cyst the size of softballs on both. The strange thing is, I didn't have severe pain like they told me I should have been in...It felt like I was constipated. I am in more pain now then before surgery.
I hope it gets better for you.

Thank you for posting your response. Your experience is a lot like mine, but I am only 2 weeks post-op.

I am feeling same problem. I had remove my left ovary along with tube 7 months back but every month at the time of menstrual cycle i feel burning sensation where my left ovary should be. Pls help me i m 32 yrs and trying for baby... but every month after surgery i feel pain and burning sensation..

I had a cis removed from my kidneys but not my left hip is num why is that?

I've had a similar prob. I had my right ovary removed and 12 years down the line I had a cyst develop on the right side attaching to the left fallopian tube. So I had another surgery to remove my fallopian tube.

Hi, I read about your predicament; I am in the same boat as well. I had a chocolate cyst against my ovary, but it was the size if a football and it compromised the ovary so I had the whole right ovary removed. A year later, I'm having the same kind of pain too. After you use the restroom, you can feel this unnatural weight sink back down and it feels like a cyst. At least, that's the only way I can describe it. It is a dull pain but if you drink a lot of water and wait too long, it becomes this pain that throbs and stabs. It would come and go for months and I thought it was just my cycle, but it has been constant for a week and I'm going to get an ultrasound again tomorrow. There's a chance that it could be a cyst growing in your fallopian tube. It could be anything really. If you'd like, email me at GraphicArtistJessi@yahoo okay? I will let you know what's happening to be and maybe it can help you with you situation as well. Thanks Jayshay
