如何用英语表达“按下葫芦起了瓢”的意思？

不要直译啊，只要意译。
表达“一个问题顾了这一头顾不了那一头”的意思就可以了。希望能找到英语中等价的idiom或slang。

嗯。。凑合看吧：
when you press down the "hulu", "piao" will come out

简单但不纯正的说法,
solve one problem to find another cropping up.
等我找到了SLANG告诉你哈

there's always a hulu or piao is going to screw you ~~

"Murphy's law", or "Murphy's at the side" - which means if anything can go wrong, it will go wrong.

Please correct me if I misunderstood the original Chinese meaning. :P

中文，我都不知道这个是什么意思。

“whack-a-mole” situation
有一种游戏，就是打地鼠，就是一排九宫格的洞，每个洞随机冒出一个老鼠出来，你打了这只，那边的洞又冒出另外一只
one problem resolved, then it raised another

较为文绉绉的中文差不多是：一波未平一波又起。
