<s>[INST] I am a 26 year old female and I have 3 children all natural births. I had a partial hysterectomy in july 2010, I have been having lower right side pain since dec 2012 and now is increasingly getting worse iv been to the er and dr and they cant find anything wrong!! its a sharp pain around my right ovary and in my groin area is consistently hurting w/ a dull achy pain and shoots down my upper theigh area. Last fall I did have a cyst on that ovary that was filled with blood and busted . I also have had my gallbladder removed and a hematoma in my stomach and I also have endometriosis. Can you help me get to the bottom of this miserable pain? [/INST] Hi! Thank you for your question. I have had patients before whom, after undergoing abdominal surgery, also developed pain in the same area or nearby. The most common explanation for your pain, if not due to anything else, is adhesions. Adhesions are tough fibrous tissue that develop as a result to the trauma of surgery. You can consider them as scar tissue that form between organs and tissues, causing them to stick together or be pulled from their normal positions. This will, of course, cause some discomfort or pain like in your case. Take care! </s>
