Patient's question:
Previously, I had a thorough examination in the hospital and found that I had an ovarian cyst. I have been needing treatment for it, but recently my legs have been hurting particularly badly. I want to know if the ovarian cyst can cause leg pain?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts are a common gynecological inflammation in women. If there are no fever symptoms, they generally do not cause leg pain. In the recent days, your legs have been particularly painful, and the relationship with ovarian cysts should not be significant. It could be due to overexertion or a problem with the lumbar spine, which can lead to sciatic nerve pain. It is recommended to rest a bit in the coming days and avoid overexertion. If the pain persists, it is best to go to the hospital for a thorough examination.
