I was diagnosed with a cavernous hemangioma in my upper right lobe last week. I've been having horrible pain on the right side of my abdomen under the ribs. I can't find anything to help the pain, has anyone found anything that helped them with their pain? My dr refuses to believe that it's from the hemangioma because it's too small. I don't have a gallbladder and from what I've read many people with hemangiomas have the exact same pain. It's extremely irritating.- Re: cavernous hemangioma pain schonreid

This is a reply to # 2,005,652What is the size of your hemangioma? I too have one that I have been following for 15 years. Lately and since entering menopause, it has gotten larger. Now about 6 cm. I don't have much pain but do have a lot of other symptoms. I also have uterine cysts and fibroids and was wondering if progesterone treatment would help or hurt.

MoreThis is a reply to # 2,006,714Spikes in estrogen have been attributed to the growth in a hemangioma. Any hemangioma over 5 cm needs a consult with a general surgeon to see what the options are, as you are now at risk of having it rupture. Limit physical activities, no contact sports or activities (roller coasters, off road jeeping, etc, included). I would advise you seek a 2nd opinion with a gastroenterologist, or a hepatic surgeon.

This is a reply to # 2,098,518You are so correct about the spikes in estrogen being attributed to the growth in a Hemangiomas. I had surgery on 2/5/2010 for a Cavernous Liver Hemangioma that was accidentally found. The benign tumor was about 4 years old, 12.7 centimeter in width, when I was told that I must have a liver resection. I was out of my mine prior to this event. However, the surgeon did a marvelous job saving my life. My Gallbladder was removed, Portal Vein and the entire right lobe of my liver. I feel great! The recovery time was about 1 yr. Thank God for the technician who ask if he could scan by body. I never had any paid nor did I have any swelling within my stomach.
He did this request by the request of GOD.

MoreThis is a reply to # 2,005,652I have similar pain (diagnosed with 2 hemangiomas, 1 is considered "giant"), as does a family member who has the same condition. The only thing I've found that helps with the pain is to walk around (move!), and ingesting anything with vinegar in it (I've found relief with pickles, apple cider, etc). I've used the vinegar drink that you can buy at the healthfood store and had good results as well.

This is a reply to # 2,005,652I have had horrible pain too and at times can't take a deep breath.It comes and goes. It starts out super strong and I have been totally incapacitated for a day or two then slowly eases up. I have two 16 cent and 6 centimeters. It feels like a nerve is being pinched. I just got diagnosed last week. I thought it was from an injury to my neck and shoulder at work. After reading some cases on this site I know it's primary cause is the liver tumors.
