What Causes Abdominal Pain?

Hello,

I have been having pain in my left abdominal. Sometimes I feel like somthing has swollen or there is gas or just pain.



I saw a GP last month and tests showed I had a fibroid that is 1cm and UTI. Do you think that could be the cause of my pain?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read the history and understood your problem.
1 cm fibroid in the uterus can not cause pain in the left lower abdomen.
UTI can, provided there is a stone in the left ureter.

I would advise you the following:
-Consult a Gastroenterologist or a General Surgeon.
-Get a clinical evaluation and have physical examiantion to see for the probable causes of pain in the left side of the abdomen, viz.
Colitis, PID, Ovarian or tubal problems.

Ultrasonography and colonoscopy will help the maximum to go to the root of the cause.
-A 5 day basic course of an antibiotic and metronidazole may help to solve the problem.
