Uterine fibroids can cause significant lower abdominal pain and heavy pressure. My mother suggested hot water fermentation for relief, but we immediately consulted our family gynecologist. Please see a doctor to get an accurate diagnosis.

Haan na, they definitely cause pain, especially during periods. Many of my friends have went through this and they had severe backache and cramps too. Better to get an ultrasound done, do not ignore it.
