Smear

Hello I had my smear test about 3 weeks ago and I have been in constant pain ever since. Back, abdomen and pelvic area and constant bloating in my stomach that hasn’t gone down. I have had all this symptoms for about a year but not as sore but since the smear they are worst is it normal for a smear to worsted these symptoms

    I'm sorry to hear you're feeling poorly after your smear test.

    Given your situation, the best thing to do is to go and see your doctor.  When you are worried about a symptom it can be tempting to look for answers on an online forum, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better.  And the only person that can diagnose or help you sorting what is causing these symptons is your doctor.  

    I hope this is helpful.

    Best wishes,
