Burning, Cramping In Lower Left Quadrant. What Could It Be?

Good afternoon, Last night I waked up in the middle of the night with a burning, cramping sensation on my LLQ for about 20 Min, so bad that I went to the ER. The waiting time was about 4 Hrs, and I notice that the pain when from a 10 down to a 4 so I decide to go home. I feel right now a funny sensation on my left side. I am worry. Any ideas. thank you for your time.

Hi,
Possibly some ureteric stone or intestinal infection which seems to be settling down.
Worthwhile getting a urine examination, ultrasonography of abdomen done to determine the cause since the pain was severe.
Hope this answers your query. Wish you a speedy recovery.

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for calling H.C.M.F.
Most probable cause might be urinary tract infection, urolithiasis, If female gynacological problems may be possible.
I advise you to consult an urologist, for diagnosis and treatment. You may have to get M.R.I. besides other routine tests for confarmation.
Avoid taking spicy foods, junkfoods, and oily foods to avoid gastro intestinal irritation.
Wishing for a quick recovery.
Best regards.
