Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Could Be The Reason For Having Lower Abdominal Pain?
I have had pain in my lower abdomen/stomach for a little over a week now. It feels like a strained muscle in the area and hurts when I move around and particularly at night. It's been hurting several times through the night and I have to get up and use the restroom, thinking that is what is causing it.
The most common reason of lower abdominal pain is urinary tract infection. You may have also frequent urinating, burning while urinating, blood in the urine, fever with this condition. Lower abdominal pain should be also checked with inguinal hernia, adductor muscles inflammation, appendicitis (lower right abdominal pain), diverticulitis (lower left abdominal pain), ovaries inflammation, ovaries cyst, pregnancy.
Please consult your doctor and start with urine analysis, abdominal ultrasound and blood work.
Hope this will help. Regards.
