A member asked:

Can holding in your urine and feces cause pain in lower abdomen when going later?

Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

Probably not: Low abdominal pain can have serious causes, but holding urine or stool isn't one of them. If pain persists more than a day or two, if severe, or if other symptoms like fever or abnormal vaginal or rectal bleeding, see a doctor ASAP.
