I had a C-section about four months ago and now I have these hard, painful lumps on my left hip. I thought they'd go away on their own but they haven't. What could these be and should I be worried?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Hard, painful lumps on the hip four months after a C-section could be related to scar tissue, a hernia, or even endometriosis. While some lumps are normal post-surgery, persistent pain and lumps warrant medical evaluation. It's essential to consult with your doctor to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.

View allI've been pregnant for 6 weeks now, and for the last 34 days, every time I eat, I end up vomiting. I've been taking the pregnidoxin medicine once a day, but it just doesn't seem to be working anymore. The vomiting starts just half an hour after eating. Could it be that I'm eating too much, or is there something else going on?

I've got a bit of a concern about my period and Plan B. I had my period mid-July, from the 14th to the 18th, and then I had unprotected sex on the 19th. I took the emergency contraception pill on the 22nd. But then, oddly, I got my period again on the 28th, and it only lasted about 4 days. Is this normal? Could this be a side effect of taking Plan B?
-Yes, the bleeding you experienced on July 28 could be a side effect of the Plan B pill. Its common for emergency contraception to cause irregular bleeding or spotting, even if your period comes around the usual time.

I'm really worried because there's minimal free fluid in my pelvis, and I've been having severe stomach pain. I was admitted to a nearby hospital, and the MD observed me, but my condition hasn't improved. Can anyone suggest what the underlying issue might be, or if there's a specific direction we should explore for better treatment?
Hydrocele can be uncomfortable. Since you're not experiencing pain, you can try the following non-surgical methods to reduce the size: 1. *Elevation*: Elevate your scrotum while sitting or lying down to reduce swelling. 2. *Supportive underwear*: Wear supportive, loose-fitting underwear to reduce pressure. 3. *Exercise*: Regular exercise, like cycling or swimming, can help improve circulation and reduce swelling. 4. *Dietary changes*: Increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to improve overall health. If these methods don't help, consider consulting a urologist for surgical options, such as hydrocelectomy.
