What causes lower abdominal pain in men?

In real life, lower abdominal pain in men is a common problem. This may be a manifestation of illness. Usually, intestinal diseases can easily lead to this condition, or when abnormalities in the urinary system cause urine to be unable to be discharged normally, this condition can also easily lead to this condition. It can be treated through detailed examinations and observation of the condition should be carried out more often.

What causes lower abdominal pain in men?

There are many reasons, among which the following are the main clinical reasons.

First, intestinal diseases, such as functional intestinal disorders, inflammation, tumors, parasites, intestinal obstruction and other diseases of the rectum, part of the colon, and small intestine, can be clinically diagnosed by imaging examinations such as B-ultrasound, CT or colonoscopy.

Second, urinary system diseases, such as diseases of the lower end of the ureter, bladder, prostatitis, stones, tumor polyps, etc. Clinically, they can be diagnosed by B-ultrasound, CT and other imaging examinations, or ureterography, or urine and prostatic fluid testing.

Third, inguinal hernia or tympanic hernia, or even incarcerated extraperitoneal hernia. At this time, a mass can be seen in the patient's abdominal groove, accompanied by varying degrees of bloating, dull pain, and cramping. B-ultrasound can be used for auxiliary examination to confirm the diagnosis. Clinically, the cause of the patient's disease must be determined first, and then a reasonable treatment plan is formulated in a targeted manner. The cause of the patient's disease is often comprehensively judged in combination with the patient's medical history, clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, etc.

Causes

1. Prostate disease

Prostate disease is a thorn in the side of many men. If they are not careful, they are at risk of developing prostate disease, especially prostatitis and prostatic hyperplasia, which are more common in men after the age of 30.

Once you have a prostate disease, you will experience pain in the male perineum, especially when you have the urge to urinate. The urine in the bladder will constantly squeeze the male prostate and testicles, causing the pain to gradually spread to the entire perineum and eventually to the lower abdomen, causing pain in the lower abdomen. If you have constant lower abdominal pain in your daily life and you have frequent and urgent urination, you should consider whether there is something wrong with your prostate.

2. Epididymitis

Epididymitis is a type of inflammation that is common in men. It is mainly caused by bacterial infection that leads to inflammation of the testicles and epididymis. Under normal circumstances, there is no obvious pain when the epididymis is inflamed, but the inflammation continues to infiltrate the blood vessels and tissues, reaching the bladder and even the lower abdomen, causing pain in the lower abdomen.

When a man's epididymis becomes inflamed, if he performs sexual activities at this time, it can easily irritate the testicles, causing severe pain and causing inconvenience to the man's normal life.

3. Cystitis

Ordinary cystitis does not cause pain under normal circumstances. However, if urine accumulates in the bladder, it will constantly stimulate the bladder wall, causing pain. The bladder is close to the lower abdomen, which can easily cause lower abdominal pain. If a man finds that his lower abdominal pain is accompanied by bladder pain, he should consider going to the hospital for examination to prevent cystitis.

4. Urinary system diseases

There are many diseases of the male urinary system, the most common of which are urethritis, prostatitis and other diseases, which are manifested by frequent urination, urgency, pain and difficulty urinating. The appearance of these inflammations will affect the lower abdomen of men and cause pain. If men have frequent lower abdominal pain and difficulty urinating, they should go to the urology department for examination in time to avoid worsening of the condition.
