Suggest Treatment For Lower Abdominal Pain And Cold Sweats
My boyfriend was in the back seat of the car. Reading on his cell while I was driving a very curvy road and he started complaining about how hot it was and then he made me pull over cause he thought he was going to get sick but didn t then he got the hot and cold sweats then his lower stomach was in severe pain and then he went straight home got naked and got straight into bed then got out of best and was sitting in a fetal position for awhile. Is he passing a stone
I have gone through the query. I think that your boyfriend has either a kidney stone or a Urinary Tract Infection(UTI). These are the first few possibilities.
There are more possibilities but you should rule these out first. In a UTI, there will be a high fever with chills. This will cause a lot of weakness and severe pain as well. UTI needs to be treated with antibiotics which you would get from a Doctor via a prescription.
A kidney stone occurs because of calcium collection in the kidney in most cases. This will cause the pain as the ureters try to pass the stone. You should see a Doctor to confirm the diagnosis. This is done with an X-ray or with a Ultrasound. The next step can be to wait or if the pain is unbearable, your Boyfriend can get the stone removed by a stone removal basket. This surgery will take less than an hour.
Hope this helps you. All the best. Feel free to ask me any further queries.
