Why Does the Area Near My Pelvis Hurt?

Pain near the pelvis may be caused by endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, pelvic floor tension myalgia, or sacroiliac joint injury. Interstitial cystitis may be caused by the breakdown of mucin on the surface of the bladder epithelium that prevents excessive acidity. If there is pain near the right pelvis, it is necessary to check for trauma or perform a CT scan.

1. Endometriosis. Endometriosis occurs when active endometrial tissue grows outside the uterine cavity and bleeds simultaneously with the endometrium during menstruation.

2. Interstitial cystitis. Interstitial cystitis manifests as intermittent discomfort in the bladder, which may be caused by the breakdown of mucin on the surface of the bladder epithelium that prevents excessive acidity.

3. Pelvic floor tension myalgia. Pelvic floor tension myalgia can have both physiological (such as difficult childbirth) and psychological causes.

4. Sacroiliac joint injury is a relatively common disease that can cause pain near the pelvis. The sacroiliac joint is located on the posterior side of the pelvis, and local pain may occur.

1. Avoid movements that cause pelvic pain.

2. Determine if there is any trauma. If the pain is caused by trauma, it is necessary to actively improve CT and three-dimensional reconstruction examination.

3. If there is pain without trauma, it is necessary to actively rest, avoid repeating the same movement for a long time.

4. If the pain is caused by some neoplastic diseases, surgery is required to remove the tumor lesion.
