What STD can cause groin pain?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There isn't a STI that specifically causes your breasts to hurt.

This could simply be the result of an impending period, as many women find that the monthly hormonal changes cause their breasts to become a bit fuller and thus more painful.

What is disc protrusion with high intensity zone also causing mild foraminal encroachment at L4-L5?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's from a radiology report - essentially it's saying that there's a mild disk bulge (not full herniation) at the L4/5 disk that's encroaching on the L4/5 foramina. The foramina is the part of the vertebrae between the spine and vertebrae where the nerves pass. They look like holes or notches behind the vertebrae.

It's not uncommon for a disk protrusion in the lower lumbar area to impinge on the foraminal nerves. Mild just indicates it's not enough of a problem to warrant anything other than non-surgical therapy (rest, anti-inflammatories, etc.). There's usually an underlying cause though - stenosis, injury, old age, weight, etc.

The best way to deal with it is to limit the amount of stress you put on your lumbar spine, and to change the way you sleep (assuming you haven't already). Never sleep on your back, unless you've got cushion under your knees that will flatten your lumbar spine against the mattress; if you sleep on your side, put a cushion between your knees that will keep your legs parallel (this reduces pressure on the hips and lower spine); and never sleep on your stomach. Putting a cushion or pillow behind you and for your arm to rest on (if sleeping on your side) will help keep you from rolling over. Even though I did it for years before my first fusion, I still do it today, and it still helps.

Groin lump?

Asked by Wiki User

If it looks like a thumb poking out of your skin, it happened to me once, it turned out to be, and I kid you not, cat scratch fever. It is a real thing, you can only get it once and antibiotics cleared it right up. That doesn't mean that is what you have.

It could be a hernia. This should be seen by a doctor immediately as it will only worsen with time. Its a tear in the abdominal wall and its your guts or innards trying to poke through. Very painful and it does not heal on its own. It's a little smaller than a chickens egg and can be discolored or bruised in appearance.

What causes pain in the cecum?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Telangectasias are just dilated blood vessels. They can cause bleeding but generally not pain. If the pain is comming from the Cecum (part of the large intestine) it usually would be from some type of inflammation; either infection or inflammatory bowel disease.

Pain doen in the right lower side of the abdomen can be caused by other things such as abdominal wall pain (muscles), hernies, ovaries, or other problems.

What does it mean to have upper left sided abdominal pain sometimes sharp and lower back pain with constipation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is a high chance that it could be Appendicitis (if you haven't already had it removed). The appendix is located on your lower right side, but if there is a nerve leading from it to the left side of your body, you can feel the pain of it on that side. If the pain continues to bother you, you need to see a doctor though.

Causes of groin pain?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

As odd as this may seem, it could actually be from a cut or abrasion below the groin area, such as on the legs. There are glands in the groin area that can be affected by something like that. But you need to see your doctor for an examination, since there are a number of things that could cause this.

Mild sorness in your groin comes and goes worse when you sit down?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS) is a muscle and nerve condition of the pelvic floor that refers pain to various areas like testicles, perineum, rectum, and penis. It is generally worsened by sitting.

There is a book called "Headache in the Pelvis" by Anderson, a urologist at Stanford that explains it in detail. More information is available on the web under CPPS.

There are similar conditions for women who can injure pelvic muscles in childbirth.

How do you take the temperature in groin?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A normal body temperature is usually 36-37°C. The temperature in the mouth is 37.5°C. The temperature in the groin or under the arm is 0.5°C lower, and the temperature in the rectum is 0.5°C higher,

If the temperature is above 37.5°C the patient has a fever; the higher the temperature, the greater the fever. A temperature higher than 39°C is a sign of dangerous illness
