Patient's question:
In January 2013, I received medical treatment in Huai'an. It was an ovarian cyst, and the ovary was removed. After laboratory tests, it was determined to be well-differentiated. The hospital required a second surgery, where the appendix, omentum, and uterus were also removed. Since then, during the recovery period until now, I have not undergone chemotherapy. I have been experiencing numbness and pain on the outer sides of my thighs. When sleeping, my legs cannot touch anything, and only then do I feel somewhat better. We have visited your clinic once, but did not consult you about these symptoms. Now, I feel particularly unwell and would like to consult Director Chen about what is happening and how to improve and alleviate these symptoms. Thank you, and I look forward to your reply from Director Chen.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the causes of ovarian cysts are often related to endocrine factors, lifestyle factors, environmental factors, genetic factors, etc. In general, there are no obvious symptoms in the early stage, but as it develops, there may be abdominal pain and a sensation of a lump, menstrual disorders, and in severe cases, abdominal pain and bloating. Treatment usually involves taking Guizhi Fuling pills and Kingjindong capsules. It is important to undergo follow-up ultrasound examinations and pay attention to changes in the nature of the ovarian cyst.
