I had an ovarian cyst on my right ovary to rupture yesterday. The pain was so debilitating and excruciating that I was rushed to the ER for fear of appendicitis. After a CT scan, they saw that I had a lot of fluid around my pelvis and still had a cyst of about 3.1 cm (which means it burst, but it has still not fully ruptured). While I am not in the excruciating pain I was yesterday, I am still in pain. How long does the pain of a ruptured ovarian cyst typically last?

I have not went back in for my follow up ultrasound but I am worried that they will find something really wrong because of the pain that I am still in. The cyst was 5 centimeters when it ruptured and the doctors say that the fluid left behind would cause some discomfort until it all got absorbed, but I am afraid that this pain is indicative of something else. Any ideas on how long it takes to recover from this or if it might be something else?
The pain is all of the way across my lower abdomen and it comes and goes but it sometimes severe. The ovary that had the cyst was the right ovary. Tylenol does not work and Ibopfren only works slightly.

I had a Huge ovarian cyst rupture last month. Holy cow, was that intense! I’m feeling all the pain again right now. Instead of having a period (which I was due a few days ago), I had clear discharge. I wonder if I should get it checked out. I’ve never had that symptom before. Also, last month and right now I have this severe headache that’s keeping me from being able to do just about anything. The pain’s into my neck and everything. Why would an ovarian cyst cause a headache?
