I Was In The ER With Severe Cervix Pain. I

Posted on Sun, 10 Nov 2019

Question: i was in the ER with severe cervix pain. I have a prolapsed bladder and uterus but all labs, ultrasound imaging, and CT scans were normal. Symptoms included a large amount of discharge that ranged from yellow, brown, red, and black. They ran a full STD panel and everthing was negative. The doctor took this picture of my cervix because she said she had never seen anything like it.

I have a history of Babeseosis and suspect this is some type of parasitic infection. When I asked the doctor if it could be female genital schistosoma or similar, she had never heard of the condition.

Im 38, had one cecerean 10 years ago and 2 VBACs, one in 2015 and one in 2016. I have no history of STD%E2%80%99s and have been with my huspand for 12 years.

What tests or conditions would you consider?

Brief Answer:
Pain can be due to nerve compression.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
I have seen the attached images. This seems to be related to a cervical infection. Can be a fungal infection due to the amount of discharge you have. The extreme pain can be related to a mild nerve roiot compression at the level of lower spine or compression due to prolapsed uterus and bladder. A swab culture can help in identifying the type of infection that you have. Any parasitic infection in the area is not liekly.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
