What Causes Lower Back Pain, Bloating And Stomach Discomfort?

Posted on Mon, 18 Jul 2016

Question: I have had lower left sided discomfort for several weeks. Dr has done a pelvic exam and said this was fine. Also had urinalysis which was fine. Dr queried trigger point in back given some lower back pain as well, which started after initial stomach discomfort. Given abdominal discomfort stated before lower back pain this seems unlikely to me. Pain is not made worse by anything and is not particularly bad, sometimes it feels more like a sensation. Pain is not sharp and not cramp like menstrual cramps. It comes and goes during the day and some days is more noticeable than others. I do not have any other symptoms including bloating, bowel or urinary issues. I am a 40 year old female.

Brief Answer:
Adhesions

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about pain.

Surgeriesl ike C Section lead to adhesions in the abdomen between different organs. These organs gets stuck to each other and cause such pain .

Hence I suggest you get an ultrasound scan to identify if there are multiple adhesions causing pain and need to release these adhesions.

Regards
