A member asked:

My 56 y/o fianc started having mild constant pain lower left abdomen around navel 2 days ago. sensitive to touch. feels he is constipated. any idea?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Exam advised: Left sided abdominal discomfort with associated tenderness is suspicious of diverticulitis of the descending colon. Constipation may accompany this also. I recommend that a physician examinine your fiance in the hospital emergency room now where testing can be carried out expeditiously.
