Terrible Ovarian Cyst Pain

Posted , 3 users are following.

I've been in and out of the ER and they finally discovered that I had ovarian cysts, and assumed one had ruptured. That was two days ago and I'm still in intense pain. I am at a loss as to what to do for this anymore - the pain medication isn't touching it, heat doesn't help. What else can I do?

    Have you tried laying a pillow under your lower abdomen? It helps me a lot. Or my doctor told me drinking cranberry juice is helpful.

    I am so sorry to hear that. Ovarian cysts can be extremely painful. Ibuprofen can help. If no pain med helps, you may have to talk to your dr about dealing with it surgically
