Lower left abdomen pain?
My guess would be intestinal gas. I worked in an ER for a few years and remember a couple of people coming in for it ... they were a little embarrassed when they found out it wasn't cancer or something horrible, but they were relieved and it went away. Sometimes it hurts without added pressure. Where it was only a 15 minute bout, that would be my best guess. >>>I saw your additional comments. Definitely sounds like gas pains ... there is a reason babies cry so much when they have gas - it really hurts. Adults generally get the severe pain less often, but, though it makes me laugh (maybe I'm sophomore-ish), gas can be very painful. As far as appendicitis, this doesn't sound like the case at all. Wrong abdominal quadrant, not a long enough duration of pain, and appendicitis pain generally is most severe when you release pressure from pushing over the appendix (something I learned while an EMT). Try just passing it, if you can. If your someplace public or just can't, try Mylanta or some sort of gas medicine. You probably ate something that caused it, and may want to take Mylanta or whatever if you eat that food again.
How do you get rid of sudden pain in your lower left abdomen?
I am not a physician, but I do have experience with left lower abdominal pain.I had pain in my lower left abdomen that lasted a couple of days. I finally went to the emergency room when I felt that there was nothing I could do to make it better. After a series of tests and X-rays, they determined that I had diverticulitis. They put me on some very heavy duty antibiotics and told me to eat soft foods. The pain was gone within a day or two. I now know that I have diverticulosis which can turn into diverticulitis if I don’t eat enough roughage or chew grains and peanuts well enough. Sometimes I will get a (much less) pain in the same area and I will switch to soft foods and drink lots of water and it goes away, but if it doesn’t go away, or if the pain gets worse, I plan on going to the doctors office or emergency department the reason is below.My good friend had the same symptoms, although I didn’t hear about it until after the fact, he waited to go to the ER. the pain became unbearable so he finally went. He had severe diverticulitis. He ended up having to have part of his colon removed, and had a colostomy for six months. Simply put, a colostomy is when the surgeon routes the colon to the outside of the abdomen, a special bag is placed, adhered, over the hole and that is how you poop.I suggest you get your pain checked out by a medical professional.ColostomyImages from Bing
Left abdomen pain during period?
It could be a fibroid love. I had those same period symptoms once upon a time. The u/s tech discovered one when I was pregnant with my DD. After years of poking, prodding, and PAINFUL periods, it was nice to have a diagnosis. After she was born, it disappeared and I haven't had pain like it since. Good luck to you! xo

I have lower left abdominal pain?
See your health care provider as soon as possible (gastroenterologist), for consultation. Left side abdominal pain is often more common in women and young adults, as a cause of abdominal pain. The causes of a left sided abdominal pain are legion and runs the gamut from diverticulitis, irritable bowel syndrome, kidney infections, kidney stone, bowel problems, like diverticulitis, and constipation, to pain arising from muscles and skin over the left side of the abdomen. Any disease process affecting organs or structures on the left side of the abdomen can cause pain there. Left side abdominal pain can also result from organs or structures far removed from the abdomen or near it, or even from pain spreading from other part of the abdomen. As in other parts of the body, pain on the left abdomen can occur from disease affecting the following organs found there. Organs and structures found in the left side of the abdomen are: Left edge of the liver The Spleen Body and Tail of the Pancreas The Stomach Left half of the Transverse Colon or large intestine The Descending Colon Sigmoid Colon Left Adrenal gland Left Kidney Left Ureter Left Ovary in women Left Fallopian tube in women Muscles of the wall of the left side of the abdomen Nerves on the left side of the abdomen If the pain persists or if the person believes the pain may represent a serious problem, they should see their health care provider. A heating pad or soaking in a tub of warm water may ease the pain. Over-the-counter antacids, such as Tums, Maalox, or Pepto-Bismol, also can reduce some types of abdominal pain. Activated charcoal capsules also may help. Otherwise, acetaminophen, aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen may be used for pain. I hope this helps you. And good luck.

I have a persistent pain on the left side of my abdomen and lower back. I have consulted many doctors, but the cause is still unknown. What could it be? (See description)
Congrats on having no abnormalities found after such extensive exams (personally, if you were my patient, at 23 yo, I wouldn’t have done so many exams).Many people having an irritable bowel syndrome feel their sigmoid colon, located in the left lower part of your belly, cramping, this pain radiates to the back, groin and thigh.These are measures that you can try to alleviate your pain:-if constipated do something about it, e.g. by-taking lots of food fiber e.g. metamucil® 4 tablespoonfuls with lots of water a day which can be effective in non constipated people too-spasmolytics e.g. Duspatal® (mebeverine) -some people I treated did quite well often on super low dosed tricyclic antidepressant (imipramine, nortryptiline) starting at 10 mg at night, after 3 to 6 weeks if no success slowly more 25 mg (to a max of 150 mg/day). It only works after 3 to 6 weeks, so patience is needed. This we know from our chronic pain clinic experience.-some patient did very well on cognitive behavioral treatment.

Unusual pain in lower left abdomen during sex?
In many cases, a woman can experience pain during sex if there is not sufficient vaginal lubrication. When this occurs, the pain can be resolved if the female becomes more relaxed, if the amount of foreplay is increased, or if the couple uses a sexual lubricant. In some cases, a woman can experience painful intercourse if one of the following conditions is present: Vaginismus. This is a common condition in which there is a spasm in the vaginal muscles, mainly caused by the fear of being hurt. Vaginal infections. These conditions are common and include yeast infections. Problems with the cervix (opening to the uterus). In this case, the penis can reach the cervix at maximum penetration, so problems with the cervix (such as infections) can cause pain during deep penetration. Problems with the uterus. These problems may include fibroids that can cause deep intercourse pain. Endometriosis. A condition in which the endometrium (tissue lining the uterus) grows outside the uterus. Problems with the ovaries. Such problems might include cysts on the ovaries. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease. The tissues deep inside become badly inflamed and the pressure of intercourse causes deep pain. Ectopic pregnancy. A pregnancy in which a fertilized egg develops outside of the uterus. Menopause. The vaginal lining can lose its normal moisture and become dry. Intercourse too soon after surgery or childbirth Sexually transmitted infections. These may include genital warts, herpes sores or other STDs. Injury to the vulva or vagina. These injuries may include a tear from childbirth or from a cut (episiotomy) in the perenium (area of skin between the vagina and the anus) that is made during labor. go to a doc to make sure you r ok
