Guest guest Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Hi, Hope all is good. Just a small question. ... How can we be sure if there was no rupture during dilatation? Doctor has cleared the x ray result however this thing is still in my mind - is there any chance if doctor misses the rupture and patient starts experiencing the complications later ? In that case what could possibly be the symptoms ? Thanks Hassaan Sent from my iPhone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any kind of trauma, even surgery or dilatation, can cause a small bump in temperature because of the activity of the immune system healing the trauma. So a fever of more than a small rise would be the first clue. The trauma from the dilatation can also cause some pain. That pain should get better as the body heals and adjusts. If the pain gets worse it could be pain from a spreading infection. Increasing pain would be a clue. The trauma and the activity of the immune system can make a person feel a little sick. That feeling should quickly pass. If it does not pass but gets worse it could be a spreading infection. Our bodies don't all respond the same to things like dilatation or infections. The main things is that one should get better, however that person normally responds, and if not or symptoms seem out of line from what should be expected then maybe something is wrong. notan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
