Hello Doctor, my mothers name is S. Kalavathi, her age is 52 years. She was doing business from home and have done hard work for the past 12 years. She is suffering from pain in the abdomen and the back for the past 4 months. We had consulted a doctor in March, 2010 & she advised us to take a scan of the abdomen. We took a scan and she verified the same. She advised that my mom has some problem in her uterus. She told that a small skin had grown in the abdomen and that need to be operated. But at present it is not severe and so she gave some tablets for my mothers health to improve. She felt better after that.But last week again she got pain and we consulted another doctor as the first doctor was not available. She advised immediate operation of the appendicitis. But we were not convinced and waited for the first doctors advise. Last Friday we got an appointment and visited her. She has advised us to take another scan as the old one was taken 4 months back. As my mother has some personal commitments in the coming months she may not be ready for the operation. Also she is not mentally ready for the operation. She will be free only by the month of October. So we seek your advise on the above problem as to whether we need to go for the operation or wait for a few months?
If pain in abdomen can be managed with medicines only, then it is good You need not go for operation. If she is having pain recurrently and if that pain is unbearable you should go for operation otherwise there is no need of operation at present.
