Patient's question:
I previously had an ultrasound examination for a thorough check-up. The doctor said I have an ovarian cyst, but it's not very large. If it grows, surgery may be necessary. Currently, they prescribed some medication for me. Now, I'm experiencing symptoms of lower back pain and soreness again, so I'd like to ask if an ovarian cyst can cause lower back pain and soreness?Doctor's answer:
Ovarian cysts are one of the common tumors in women, divided into benign and malignant tumors. If the tumor is relatively small and there are no obvious clinical manifestations, special treatment is not necessary, and follow-up examinations should be conducted periodically. If the tumor is larger, ovarian cysts may cause lower back pain, but it is also necessary to be cautious about other possible causes of lower back pain. It is recommended to perform some careful examinations on the lower back and receive timely symptomatic treatment based on the examination results.
