General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello and welcome to Healthcamagic.
These symptoms are suggestive of diverticulitis or diverticulosis and you need to do colonoscopy to rule this out or at least CTscan. It is treated with antibiotics and probiotics in most cases but surgery may be required in future if there is no improvement.
I hope I have answered your query. I wish you a nice day.
