Why does the left side of my stomach hurt? Here’s the reason

In life, many people experience pain on the left side of their abdomen. Both men and women may experience this symptom. If you have frequent pain on the left side of your abdomen, you should be alert and go to a regular hospital for examination and diagnosis as soon as possible to avoid delaying the treatment. Because long-term pain on the left side of the abdomen is often related to some chronic diseases.

1. Many male friends suffer from prostatitis in life. In fact, this is caused by men's lack of restraint or lack of attention to hygiene during sexual life. Once prostatitis occurs, men will feel a dull pain in the lower left abdomen, accompanied by general weakness and localized fever. If this happens, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the disease.

Men have pain in the left lower abdomen, which may be caused by urinary system disease

1. The reason why men often experience pain on the left side of their abdomen is closely related to the urinary system. In addition to the typical lumbar and abdominal cramps and nausea and vomiting, most patients with urinary stones may have symptoms such as difficulty urinating and painful urination. The pain usually reflects from the waist to the ipsilateral groin or perineum.

2. Medical research has found that men with chronic prostatitis may also experience pain on the left side of their abdomen. However, the diagnosis and treatment of chronic prostatitis are very difficult. No bacteria can be found in the patient's urine, and no pus cells or white blood cells can be seen under a microscope in the prostatic fluid.

Women have pain on the left side of their abdomen, which may be a gynecological disease

1. There are ovaries, fallopian tubes, sigmoid colon and other organs 5-6 cm to the left of the navel of women. Generally, if B-ultrasound is performed for pain on the left side and ovarian and fallopian tube diseases are excluded, it is mostly gastrointestinal disease.

In this case, you need to consider gastrointestinal diseases such as gastritis and enteritis based on the pain area, nature, and time. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for barium meal, B-ultrasound and other related examinations for diagnosis and treatment.

2. It may be chronic enteritis, usually accompanied by loose stools, unformed stools, and abdominal pain after defecation. Pain 5-6 cm to the left of the navel may be caused by ureteral stones, because stones can get stuck in this area and cause pain, and the nature of the pain is generally colic.

It is recommended to go to the hospital for further ureterography to clarify the ureteral condition. If there is indeed stone obstruction, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment. If there is no ureteral disease, you can take antibiotics such as Changyanling and Amoxicillin (without a history of penicillin allergy).
