[|Human|] I have HPH and have been fitted with a shunt woith the end placed in my abedomon . I have had pain where ever the shunt ends up, Rt side Lt side. It seems that the fluid is causing the problem. The pain is like i have pulled a mussel and do not want to move. It is better in the morning. and worse at night.
[|AI|]  Hello! Thank you for the query. Fluid itself does not cause the pain as abdominal cavity constantly produces it as well. Its more the shunt itself causing the pain. You should always be aware of infection which it can cause as well as adhesions around it. I suggest you to consult your surgeon and consider shunt relocation. You should also have abdominal ultrasound, CRP and blood work checked. Hope this will help. Regards.
