What is the reason for the pain on the left side of the abdomen? It is caused by these four diseases

Female friends more often experience pain on the left side of their abdomen, and often think it is caused by overwork. Studies have found that there are reasons for this, but the most common reason is gynecological diseases, such as adnexitis, endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc.; it may also be caused by stones. The specific cause requires professional examination.

1. Causes of left side abdominal pain

1. Adnexitis: Adnexitis is the cause of lower left abdominal and lower back pain in women. Adnexitis is the most common gynecological inflammation. Acute adnexitis has symptoms such as severe lower abdominal pain, fever, chills, etc.; chronic adnexitis has symptoms of varying degrees of left-sided abdominal pain, or lower abdominal distension, accompanied by increased leucorrhea, back pain, menstrual disorders, etc.

2. Endometritis: Endometritis is caused by bacteria ascending along the vagina and cervix or descending along the fallopian tubes and reaching the endometrium through the lymphatic system. Under normal circumstances, the female vagina is acidic and the cervix has a mucus plug, which is the body's physiological barrier that can resist bacterial invasion.

3. Pelvic inflammatory disease: Pelvic inflammatory disease can also cause pain in the left side of the abdomen and back in female friends. Pelvic inflammatory disease usually has no obvious systemic symptoms, but sometimes there are lower abdominal pain, distension and pain in the lower abdomen, soreness in the lumbar region, and irregular menstruation. The symptoms of pain in the lower left side of the abdomen will worsen after sexual intercourse.

4. Stones: The main cause of abdominal pain on the left side of women is kidney stones. The pain it causes is often located in the patient's costovertebral angle, waist, and upper abdomen. Most of the time, it is paroxysmal, but it can also be continuous. Dull pain is mainly manifested by soreness, discomfort, dull pain in the lower back, etc. Activities or labor can induce or aggravate the pain.

2. Causes of right lower abdominal pain

1. Chronic inflammation of genitals:

Women suffer from long-term lumbar and sacral pain and lower abdominal pain, which worsens after sexual intercourse and during menstruation. It is often accompanied by increased leucorrhea, which is mostly caused by chronic cervicitis. If you experience long-term lower abdominal distension, pain, and lumbar pain that worsens after fatigue, sexual intercourse, or before and after menstruation, and are often accompanied by menstrual disorders and fatigue, it is mostly caused by chronic pelvic inflammation.

2. Dysmenorrhea:

There are two types of dysmenorrhea: primary and secondary. Primary pain often occurs in adolescent girls for unclear reasons. It usually heals itself as you age or after getting married and having children. Common causes of secondary pain are endometriosis and adenomyosis. A common symptom of endometriosis is secondary dysmenorrhea that gradually worsens. The pain may occur periodically, or there may be dull pain in the lower abdomen during non-menstrual periods that worsens before and after menstruation. It is often accompanied by pain during sexual intercourse, which is caused by the repeated thrusting of the penis during sexual intercourse, which causes the penis to collide with the ectopic nodules on the posterior wall of the cervix and the ligaments. In addition, it is often accompanied by infertility and menstrual disorders. Adenomyosis, like endometriosis, presents with secondary dysmenorrhea, often accompanied by menorrhagia.

3. Pelvic congestion:

Also known as pelvic varicose veins. Caused by chronic pelvic congestion. The main symptom is lower abdominal pain, which is relieved when lying down. In addition, it is often accompanied by lumbar pain, menorrhagia and increased leucorrhea. The pain in the lower abdomen and lumbosacral region worsens after sexual intercourse. Due to the pain during sexual intercourse, symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, back pain, and increased vaginal discharge will be significantly aggravated the next day, thus causing a feeling of boredom with sexual life.
