A member asked:

What could cause a burning sensation in the lower abdomen that woke me up from my sleep. went to use the bathroom but didn't help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

More info needed: More information is needed to determine the cause of the burning sensation in the lower abdomen. Possibilities include urinary tract infection, pain associated with ovulation, infection in the reproductive tract, and inflammation in the bowel. Best to see a doctor for examination and appropriate tests.
