Consider hernia: Can't diagnose simply from description, but often times hernias (where the bowel pokes through the normal muscle) can occur in the area you described, and can cause the same symptoms.  Usually symptoms worsen during physical activity, like straining.   Hernias aren't always dangerous, but if it is bothersome, worth getting checked out.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Left lower abd: H pylori infests the upper gi tract ( stomach)and not the lower. Sharp,stabbing pains there may be gas buildup in the colon or simple colonic spasms. Pathology involving the left ovarian or pelvic organs are other possibilities. If frequent symptoms persist, see your physician for examination and appropriate tests and/ or referral to a gastroenterologist or gynecologist may be ordered.

i have been having sharp stabbing pain in my lower abdomen during period and bleeding more than normal and occasionally clotting what could this mean?

Accepted Answer

Couple things: See your doc and get on the pill.  You mat have dysmennorrea and mennorragia.  These are the medical terms for what you describe.  You may havea bladder infection though this wouldn't increase the bleeding.  You likely just need to be on the pill but go get seen.  Good luck.

Accepted Answer

: Could be (especially IBS) but could also be something more serious like diverticulitis.  If you are tender in the left lower abdomen and/or if this continues for more than another day or so, you really need to be examined - at Urgent Care or by your primary physician.
