Suggest Treatment For Severe Lower Stomach Pain

Bob has been getting pains in lower stomach. First thought it was the Diformin. Changed to different drug for type 2 diabetes. Sugar levels now reasonable. He is now drinking more water, 2 litres per day. Needs to urinate about every half hour. It takes up to 10 minutes in the toilet each time. Doctor said it was the Diformin but nothing has changed with Gliclazide and dapagliflozin one daily. The concern is the constant lower abdomen pain

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of diabetes, change of medicines but the pain in lower abdomen continues.
The increased frequency of urination and has been taking 10 minutes to pass urine indicate a severe urinary tract infection.
I would advise you the following.
First of all send urine for culture, sensitivity, microscopy.
Ultrasonography of whole abdomen.
Tests of blood.
Clinical evaluation, examination by a surgeon and get started with proper antibiotic and symptomatic treatment.
