Causes of abdominal pain in men

Abdominal pain is the most common symptom. Regardless of gender, age or status, many diseases start with abdominal pain. Because the abdomen is an important place for our organs to live, and it is where they live together. Many times, girls, children, and the elderly have abdominal pain, but men also have it. However, they often ignore some small abdominal pain for the sake of face or because they think they are men.

Lower abdominal pain and bloating indicate that the gastric mucosa is damaged. If the gastric mucosa is stimulated by abdominal pain and bloating for a long time, the surface glands will atrophy or even disappear. The glands will be replaced by colon cells. This is clinically called "intestinal metaplasia" and is a precancerous signal. Currently, the most mature and common device for screening intestinal metaplasia is the painless gastroscopy.

Lower abdominal pain and bloating refer to insufficient gastrointestinal motility, which causes food to remain in the stomach for a long time. Abdominal pain indicates that the gastrointestinal mucosa is damaged, and pain is caused by pulling and damage during gastrointestinal movement. There are many reasons that can cause abdominal bloating and pain, with gastroenteritis being the most common. Abdominal pain and bloating are the most common and most easily ignored symptoms of gastroenteritis.

Superficial gastritis: More than 70% of patients with superficial gastritis have bloating, accompanied by abdominal pain, flatulence, etc.

Erosive gastritis: Unexplained abdominal pain and bloating are the most common symptoms of erosive gastritis. Other symptoms include loss of appetite and early satiety.

Atrophic gastritis: Atrophic gastritis is the only inflammatory disease directly related to gastric cancer, so patients must be vigilant. The most common symptom of atrophic gastritis is bloating.

Gastric ulcer: The most obvious symptoms of gastric ulcer are stomach pain and abdominal pain. Although the resulting abdominal distension is not obvious, about 20% of ulcer patients still have gastric distension.

In fact, most men have some problems with their prostate, but they don't always have such severe pain as you do. Lower abdominal pain is a common male disease. The more common ones include chronic prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis. For men, lower abdominal pain is not just a common gastrointestinal disease.

The pain of chronic prostatitis is not limited to the urethra and perineum, but also radiates to the vicinity, with lower abdominal pain, lower abdominal prolapse, and lower back pain being the most common. In addition, the penis, spermatic cord, testicles and scrotum, lower abdomen, groin area (thigh root), thigh, rectum, etc. can all be affected. It should be pointed out that the low back pain caused by chronic prostatitis is in the lower back, which is easy to be confused with low back pain caused by orthopedics such as myofasciitis and lumbar muscle strain, but the latter is mostly near the beltline, which is higher than the low back pain caused by prostatitis and can be distinguished.

Seminal vesiculitis: Acute cases may cause pain in the lower abdomen, involving the perineum and the inguinal cleft on both sides. Chronic cases may cause dull pain in the upper pubic area, accompanied by discomfort in the perineum. The pain symptoms are significantly aggravated during ejaculation.

Some men will experience pain in the penis and lower abdomen after sexual intercourse. First of all, you don't have to be afraid. This is a normal phenomenon. The penis is engorged with blood after erection, and some men have weak blood return function, which causes the penis and lower abdomen to be more painful after sexual intercourse (usually lasts 1 to 3 hours). This is not a big problem.

Therefore, all men are born equal, and male friends should not be chauvinistic. If you find something wrong with your body, you must see a doctor immediately. Don't feel embarrassed or think that you will not get sick because you are a man. Timely discovery and timely treatment can also save you from suffering.
