What causes pain in the lower left side of the abdomen?

Men's health is often neglected because many men are unwilling to admit that there are some problems with their bodies. However, it is often because of this mentality that many male diseases develop. Some men have pain in the lower left side of their abdomen but are unwilling to seek medical treatment. So what is the cause of pain in the lower left side of the abdomen?

Abdominal pain is a very common clinical symptom, which involves a wide range of causes and is complex in nature. Some causes may be very mild, while others may be serious diseases. Therefore, once you have abdominal pain, you should correctly find out the cause of the pain to avoid affecting your health. Everyone has experienced abdominal pain to some extent. When abdominal pain occurs, the most concerning thing is why it occurs? Is abdominal pain serious? The location of abdominal pain is the main condition for judging the cause. Abdominal pain usually refers to pain in the front of the body, from the lower edge of the ribs to the pubic bone. Generally speaking, pain can be divided into two types: dull pain and sharp pain (hernia pain). Dull pain refers to dull pain, which is mostly caused by pain in organs or internal organs; sharp pain refers to very obvious pain, and the patient can clearly know the location of the pain, which is usually related to obstruction of the duct, such as bile duct stones and intestinal obstruction. In most cases, there is a corresponding relationship between the lesions in the abdomen and the location of abdominal pain. Generally, according to the location of the abdominal organs, the abdomen can be divided into four areas: upper right, lower right, upper left, and lower left, with the navel as the center. According to the location of the abdominal pain, it can be divided into upper left abdominal pain, upper right abdominal pain, lower left abdominal pain, lower right abdominal pain, and central abdominal pain. If the pain is in the right upper abdomen, you need to consider the liver, gallbladder, bile duct, pancreas, duodenum, right kidney, right large intestine, etc.; if it is in the right lower abdomen, you need to think about the cecum, coccyx, right ovary and fallopian tube, right ureter, etc.; if it is in the left upper abdomen, it may be the stomach, spleen, pancreas, left kidney, left large intestine; if it is in the left lower abdomen, it may be the sigmoid colon, left ovary and fallopian tube, left ureter, etc.; if it is pain around the navel, it mainly indicates small intestine disease. In addition, sometimes there may be widespread pain in the entire abdominal cavity. This is usually caused by inflammation of the peritoneum due to stimulation of some reason, such as: ulcer perforation, ectopic pregnancy rupture, internal bleeding. It is worth noting that some abdominal pain will shift with the influence of the lesion. For example, if the pain starts in the center of the upper abdomen and gradually moves to the lower right within 24 hours and becomes more and more painful, it is an important sign of appendicitis. If the pain is originally in the upper right and gradually extends to under the right rear shoulder blade, it may be a problem with the gallbladder or gallstones.

I have to tell my male friends that if you feel unwell, you should go to the hospital for a physical examination in time, because if you do not pay attention to your disease examination, the disease will develop malignantly. Pain in the lower left side of the male abdomen may seem to be a simple pain, but if it develops, it can be very scary.
