Why do women have lower back pain and abdominal pain?

If you have lower back pain or lower abdominal pain, female friends should pay attention to whether it is caused by some gynecological inflammation. The most common ones are adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. These diseases can cause lower back pain or lower abdominal pain.

1. Pain caused by inflammation: more common in adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease, more often occurs in women of childbearing age, pain on one or both sides, accompanied by increased leucorrhea. Chronic cases often present with dull pain, back pain or a feeling of heaviness; acute cases often present with abdominal pain that is resistant to pressure and is accompanied by fever.

2 Pain caused by menstruation: Lower abdominal pain and general discomfort experienced by women during menstruation are mostly physiological phenomena. If the pain is severe, it is dysmenorrhea. Most cases of dysmenorrhea during adolescence are primary dysmenorrhea, which can heal itself; however, dysmenorrhea that occurs after menstruation is mostly caused by certain diseases, so you should seek medical attention early and do not use painkillers to solve the problem.

3 Abdominal pain caused by certain gynecological diseases: For example, endometriosis often forms lumps near the ovaries, uterus, and rectum, which can aggravate abdominal pain before and during menstruation. Pain during sexual intercourse is also one of its characteristics. For example, pelvic bleeding or blood stasis can lead to pelvic pain, which often manifests itself in the base of one thigh.

4 Abdominal pain caused by ovulation: During the ovulation period, there is a feeling of bloating and pain in the lower abdomen, which is caused by the rupture of the follicle. Generally speaking, this pain does not affect health and has no adverse consequences. However, in a very small number of people, due to large rupture of the ovarian follicle during ovulation, damage to small blood vessels causes ovarian rupture and intra-abdominal bleeding, resulting in gynecological emergencies and requiring hospital treatment.

5. Abdominal pain caused by physiological deformities: Common ones include hymen occlusion, vaginal diaphragm, etc. Symptoms include abdominal pain caused by menstruation and obstruction of menstrual blood discharge during adolescence. The pain is closely related to menstruation and occurs cyclically, requiring surgical correction.

6 Abdominal pain caused by tumors: Abdominal pain, bloating, back pain and feeling of falling caused by tumors are generally persistent. If the tumor twists, ruptures, or bleeds, sudden abdominal pain often occurs. This is the "self-exposure" of the tumor and usually requires immediate surgical treatment.
