Patient's question:
I had surgery on November 9th this year due to an ectopic pregnancy. It was a laparoscopic surgery, and my left fallopian tube was removed. Now, my left lower back often hurts, sometimes quite severely. What could be the reason for this? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Postoperative abdominal or back pain after ectopic pregnancy is often caused by inflammation and adhesions. Secondly, lumbar disc herniation and lumbar muscle strain can also lead to the recurrence of back pain. It is recommended that you visit the gynecology department of a hospital for ultrasound, lumbar X-ray, and other examinations in the near future. Based on the examination results, symptomatic treatment should be provided. Before a diagnosis is made, do not engage in blind treatment to avoid taking the wrong medication. Ectopic pregnancy is a disease that is difficult to recover from. Friends suffering from this condition should maintain an optimistic attitude and face it with a positive mindset. Only in this way can they boost their confidence in fighting ectopic pregnancy and believe that recovery is certain.
