A member asked:

My husband was diagnoised with diverticulitis, 2mon. ago. he is having sharp pains in his lower back and he has pain in his lower left side, a feeling like something is blocked or going to burst inside?

See a doctor: He may have a new bout of diverticulitis. Also, scarring of the colon from diverticulitis can cause enough narrowing of the colon that it blocks up (obstructs). Your husband needs to be reevaluated.
