Chronic : Constipation can cause abdominal pain as you described so does urinary tract infection. Make sure you get checked by your physician . Uti needs to be treated with antibiotics. You also need to be aggressive with managing your constipation. Increase liquids, fibers , fruits and go three times per day.
