Patient's question:
A lump has grown in the uterus for two or three years. It was very small back then, but now it has grown to the size of an egg. Additionally, I have lower abdominal pain, and the sides of my lower abdomen also hurt, like being pricked with needles. It almost hurts every day. What is going on? What should I do? Is this situation okay?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are common benign tumors of the female reproductive system. If uterine fibroids do not persistently shrink and do not present clinical symptoms, treatment may not be necessary. However, for symptoms like yours, surgical treatment is usually more thorough. Additionally, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, besides symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of uterine fibroids.
