What Causes Lower Abdomen Pain Radiating Up To The Back Region?

Hi Dr I am currently experiencing pain in my left lower abdomen that feels like it s radiating towards the back as well? The pain intensifies when I stand or walk and decreases when I lie down. The pain goes away when I drink a lot of water. What could this be?

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
This may indicate chronic pancreatitis. In most cases it can be regulated by medications which include insuline supplements and enzymes for digestion Also alcohol is forbidden in these cases and you should eat less fatty food, less sugar and more vegetables and boiled food. Also, avoid citotoxic medications. If there is no improvement then surgical therapy may be considered and include drainage procedures or pancreas resection. This is last option and you should consult your doctor about this.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
