Can Hpv Cause Abdominal Pain? Posted: 09-12-07 14:56pm
Ive had abdominal pain, diarrhea and
weight loss for 6 months with low grade
fevers and fatigue. I've been diagnosed
and treated for a C Diff infection as well
as Mono, and am being seen to explore an
immune problem. I'm an otherwise healthy
active college student!
In the past week, I've had non-tender,
hard enlargement of my inguinal nodes
bilaterally and more on the left, so I
checked, and seem to have a rampant case
of HPV skin tag like lesions up to my
cervix. They are not visible at all from
the outside, but the outer area is red and
swollen. The pain in my lower pelvis is
worse than ever, but I've not heard of HPV
being linked to Pelvic inflammatory
disease, and my PCP doesn't think they are
related, and I should wait out this
virus?
Is there something to test for besides
visual inspection of the site to dignose
HPV for sure, because I'm worried it could
be something else to cause this intense
pain and flu like symptoms. The lesions
themselves are painless, so perhaps a co
existing infection?

Your symptoms sound to me like they come
from the mono and not from the hpv. Now I
would be worried about the hpv skin tags
on the cervix.. What was the pap smear
results?

Well you may be right, my Gyn wasn't sure
my family doc was right about it being
HPV, but I have to wait at least 2 more
weeks for the result from the Pap.
The inguinal lymph swelling and pelvic
pain is new in the last week, and Mono was
diagnosed in early June. I don't know
where to go from here, the pain is getting
worse and I have a fever of 100-102.
Should I just get on antibiotics without a
clear source of infection? (I'm a little
fearful of overdoing the antibiotics for
nothing)
