I have a 4.5cm dermoid cyst in my right ovary and my doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery. Are hospitals in Indirapuram or Ghaziabad currently performing these surgeries? I've been having bloating on my right side and thigh, and sometimes it gets so bad I can't walk. Is this normal with a cyst this size?

I'm having really bad period cramps and it's making it hard for me to get anything done. I just want to lie down all day. Do you know if Combiflam or Meftal Spas is better for this? I'm looking for something that's not too strong because I'm worried about getting used to heavy-duty painkillers in the long run. Any suggestions?

If you are looking for something less strong and less likely to cause addiction or long-term harm, Meftal-Spas might be a good option for you because it combines a muscle relaxant (Dicyclomine) with pain relief, making it a little more targeted for cramps. However, both are NSAIDs, which should be used cautiously, especially if you have any stomach or kidney issues.consult your doctor to evaluate pain
