Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Lower abdomen pain may be due to gaseous distension of colon seen in food Intolerance or Irritable Bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel problems or infections or malobsorption syndromes etc. Other possibilities like ovarian , uterine problem or intra abdominal infection etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
