What Causes Persistent Lower Left Abdominal Pain, Tenderness, Loss Of Appetite, Pale Stools, And Weakness For A Week?

Hi there, it s now been about a week that I ve been having pain in the area of my lower left stomach. If pressed about two inches above the pubic bone in that area it feels tender, and if pressure is applied the pain increases. I have been losing my appetite and had pale stools the second day this pain started, and I currently struggle to push for bowel movements, or carry heavy things. I have little energy and just feel slightly weak in general. What could be possible issues I could be having?

Hello,

Boil water, let it cool and then drink. Avoid drinking water that is not filtered. Do not take oily, spicy fried, hot food. Stick to homemade food. Prefer to take boiled food over food cooked in oil. Take digestives and liver tonic. You can take PPIs, once daily for 7-10 days. Get Urinalysis (R/E and C/S), CBC, liver function tests done.

Keep yourself well hydrated and take fluids also. Include fiber in your diet; to avoid constipation you can take laxatives. Stay away from smoking, alcohol or addictions if any.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
