Pelvic Infection from a jacuzzi?!
Question: Has anyone ever heard of developing a pelvic infection from their own jacuzzi? About 5 days ago I started having what I thought was lower back pain/pulled muscle but it has progressed to be more of a lower pelvic pain. It's more on the right side but kind of still hurts in my lower back & across the whole front. If I sleep on my stomach I will wake up with severe stabbing pain in my back. Today it actually feels more like it hurts in my "middle" (internally) than my front or back. I don't really have any other symptoms but just wonder if I could've pulled some sort of internal pelvic muscle or if it could be an infection, as I have been living in the jacuzzi due to the cold weather here. Also, I would think if it was a pulled muscle the jacuzzi would help and it doesn't seem to be helping at all. I hesitate to go to the Dr. if it's just a muscle pull as we do not have insurance right now, so I would appreciate any guidance you could give me!

Have you had a pelvic exam recently? This could simply be ovulation or a cyst on your ovaries. In any event, if you still feel this way over the next couple of days, I'd make a gyno appointment.
I'm not a doctor, but maybe you got an infection in the jacuzzi. It could be a urinary tract infection and hurting your kidneys which could make the lower back hurt. Get a urine test.....simple and cheap....good luck
