Have Pain In Groin Area And Bacterial Vaginitis. Found Ovarian Cyst. Suggestions?

Hello, I am a female and having pain in right groin area (adenxa) since 3 weeks after my periods. Before that 2 weeks ago i had a pull in my groin when i was working out on my treadmill. But pain went away in couple of days. Had a pelvic transvaginal ultrasound last week. They found a 2.6cm ovarian cyst . My Obgyn said it is fluid filled and to come back after 6 weeks. My pain has increased and worse when i sit. Pain is shooting to my inner thigh And buttocks. Except pain I am fine. No bloating, constipation or nausea. Also I had bacterial vaginitis last week and completed the antibiotic cream 2 days ago. I went to see a hernia doctor and he said no hernia.

Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Groin pain which has appeared after physical activity is very characteristic for inguinal hernia. And sometimes during physical examination it can not be detected. That is why, to be sure that there is no hernia, groin ultrasound should be performed.
Other possible reasons of such pain can be sciatica due to spine disc herniation or piriformis syndrome, urinary tract infection or stones.
I suggest you to rule out hernia with ultrasound, have urine analysis, and if no findings, spine MRI should be performed.

Hope this will help.
Regards.

Hi
As hernia is ruled out,pain shooting to inner thigh and buttocks can be due to musculo skeletal pain.
Ovarian cyst of 2.6cms does not cause radiating pain to thigh and buttocks.
For bacterial vaginitis,please take Antibiotic like Levofloxacin and Ornidazole orally.
For pain ,take skeletal muscle relaxant.
Hope it will come down.
Wish you speedy recovery

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Possible PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease). If the gynaecologist rules out, it could e referred pain from the spine - orthopaedic or neurologic assessment may be in need..

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
