Q&A with Australian Health Practitioners
Why do I still experience lower abdo pain in addition to lower back and hip pain post successful cervical cancer surgery?
Related Topics
Last year, I was diagnosed with high-grade cin3 and high-grade hpv. I had surgery to have the polyp removed in august and then a follow-up pap test, which was negative 6 months later. And then will have another follow up pap next month. I recently found out my grandmother had polyps for many years but dont know what, if anything, was in them. She did how ever pass away from a tumor that was in her bladder. What i would like to know is what should i be expecting my gyno to do after the next pap if it is clear as i still get lower abdo pain all the time in addition to lower back and hip pain. What's going on? -

You want to get the all clear with respect to the cancer. However, your back and hip pain may be a separate issue and be "musculoskeletal" in origin - which means it is coming from the discs, joints, ligaments, discs etc.
A McKenzie Method trained physio would be able to perform a mechanical assessment to find out whether the pain is "musculoskeletal" in origin. Hope this helps. (To find out more about the McKenzie Method - GOOGLE it)
