What causes pain and muscle spasms in lower back and abdomen?
Patient: I was just wondering about having some pain and spasms in my lower back and abdomen. I had a full hysterectomy about 7 years ago, only thing left is 1 damaged ovary, and I started having some painful muscle spasms in my lower back and abdomen. Tonight I notice that I am bleeding and in pain. Should I go the dr. or may this pass? Doctor: Hello!I understand your concern.Your situation is serious. The pain you have shows that something is happening  inside your abdomen. It is normal for this kind of pain to irradiate on your back and cause muscles spasms. The bleeding is very concerning. It may be related to the rudimental ovary or the vessels cut off during intervention. But it may also be related to other organs in your pelvis like rectum or urinary bladder.I recommend you see a doctor as soon as possible and have an abdominal echography.Hope to have been helpful!Thank you for using HCM.Dr. Abaz
