What's going on with my bloated belly

The feeling of abdominal distension is very uncomfortable. It is difficult to sit or stand. Especially for office workers, abdominal distension will seriously affect the work progress. Therefore, patients are more concerned about actively finding coping methods. Once the phenomenon of abdominal distension occurs, they should stop working immediately and check the cause. So, what is the matter with abdominal distension?

1. The first one is prostatitis, which is the most common disease causing lower abdominal pain in men, and it often occurs in young and middle-aged men. Once this disease occurs, our patients will experience lower abdominal distension and pain or frequent urination at night. Acute prostatitis may have systemic symptoms such as chills, fever, and fatigue; local symptoms are a feeling of heaviness in the perineum or suprapubic area, which worsens when sitting for a long time or defecating, and radiates to the waist, lower abdomen, back and thighs. If a small abscess is produced, the pain worsens and the patient cannot defecate; urethral symptoms are a burning sensation, urgency, and frequent urination during urination, which may be accompanied by terminal hematuria or purulent secretions from the urethra; rectal symptoms are rectal distension, urgency and a feeling of defecation, and white secretions may flow out of the urethra during defecation.

2. Another case is that our male friends suffer from ureteritis or ureteral stones. If a man has lower abdominal pain accompanied by lumbar pain or back pain, then we must pay attention, because this is likely to be a problem with our ureter.

3. We are also very likely to have acute appendicitis, which can occur in men of any age. Most patients experience pain in the upper abdomen that transfers to the right lower abdomen, and the pain may even be aggravated by coughing or moving the body.
