What Causes Bloating And Sharp Pain In Lower Abdomen?

Hello, So for a while now I have been experiencing this pain. Whenever I wake up from sleeping I urinate but I assumed from holding it too long thats why i have the bloating abd sharp pain in my lower abdomen and mid-back. After a while the bloating will go away but the pain will last for hours and then i will frequently use the restroom throughout the day. I have had a uti/kidney infection before but im not sure if that is related.

Well, your history is suggestive of urinary tract infection.
If this is a recurrent problem, you have to get investigated .
I would advise the following::
Blood- complete blood picture, kidney functions tests, blood sugar fasting and post-lunch,
Urine- routine,microscopy, culture and sensitivity ( before start of antibiotic)
Ultrasonography of abdomen.
CT scan and intravenous pyelography may be need if there is doubt about -
Tuberculosis, Cancer or other diseases related to the urinary system.
