Is pain common in vagina after having CoolSculpting on lower abdomen?

Question

I had coolsculpting on lower abdomen about 4 days ago. While I didn't have much pain before. I am having some pain in vagina now. Yesterday I did do a lot of walking and carrying. Could I have overdone it

The "vaginal pain" you are having is unrelated to abdominal CoolSculpting. If it continues then you should see your primary care physician or gynecologist.Best of luck,Oscar A. Aguirre, MDUrogynecologist & Cosmetic Vaginal Surgeon

Thank you for your question. It is uncommon to have pain in an area that was not treated with Coolsculpting. It is common to have swelling, numbness, and bruising in a treated area which can take several weeks to resolve. You can take Tylenol to help with your discomfort. If your symptoms do not get better please follow up with your treating physician. Best of Luck!

CoolSculpting will not affect any gynecologic structures or organs.  The pain that you are experiencing is not related to the CoolSculpting procedure.  I would recommend that you see your primary care doctor or gynecologist to have this further evaluated.  
Hope this helps,

Coolsculpting in the abdominal area does not go deeply enough to give vaginal pain. See your Gynecologist for evaluation. Best Wishes, Maurice Vick MD

It is uncommon to have any pain in a different location then where Coolsculpting was actually performed. In liposuction cases of the lower abdomen there can be swelling and decreased blood flow return from the lower anatomy since the veins course through the area of the swelling up to the heart. With that said if you have some initial swelling in the lower abdomen from Coolsculpting which was increased by physical activity it can exacerbate this and can cause some swelling and discomfort in your lower anatomy . Best to elevate your legs in a supine position as this would help blood flow easier . It is only a temporary issue and will resolve
