Why do women often experience pain in the right lower abdomen?

When women have abdominal pain, they will quickly think of physiological phenomena such as irregular menstruation. However, if the abdominal pain does not occur during the menstrual cycle, I think it should be taken seriously. If you have long-term abdominal pain, do not endure it. It is recommended that you seek medical attention immediately. In order to avoid missing the best time for treatment and worsening the disease, it will be too late to regret it then.

The main organs in the lower abdomen include the bladder, rectum, uterus, pelvis, and appendages. Problems with any organ may cause lower abdominal pain and discomfort. Common problems include acute and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, ectopic pregnancy, endometriosis, etc. Symptoms alone cannot determine the condition. It is necessary to determine the condition based on the characteristics of the pain and the course of the disease.

Comprehensive judgment based on physical examination and auxiliary examination results. There are several possible causes of lower abdominal pain on the right side of a woman:

1. Mental and psychological factors: Some patients with neurological diseases or mental illnesses will have this symptom of right lower abdominal pain. Diseases such as abdominal hysteria, abdominal epilepsy, and autonomic nervous system disorders can also cause dull pain in the right side of the lower abdomen.

2. Acute appendicitis

Generally, when pain symptoms occur around the navel and upper abdomen, and after a period of time the pain moves to the lower right abdomen, it may be caused by appendicitis. Patients will experience loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, and in the early stages of the disease they will have a low fever and fatigue. Acute appendicitis must be treated promptly, otherwise it may easily worsen and develop into appendicitis gangrene and perforation, leading to diffuse peritonitis, etc.

3. Trauma

Women's right lower abdominal pain may also be caused by trauma, such as trauma to the intra-abdominal substance and hollow organs, rupture of the spleen and liver, rupture of the stomach and intestines, etc., which can cause pain. Waist trauma, abdominal wall trauma, gynecological trauma, etc. can all cause right lower abdominal pain.

4. Adnexitis

When a woman's fallopian tubes and ovaries become inflamed, there may also be inflammations such as parametrial connective tissue inflammation and pelvic peritonitis. These inflammations are difficult to distinguish during diagnosis, but they all belong to the category of adnexitis. Adnexitis can also cause lower abdominal pain in women.

Women who often experience lower abdominal pain on the right side should pay attention, as it may be caused by the above-mentioned diseases. If left untreated, the condition will worsen and cause adverse consequences. If you have frequent and recurring lower abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital for an ultrasound or gynecological examination to ensure early detection, early treatment and early recovery. In addition, you should also pay attention to developing good living habits.

In terms of diet, don’t eat too much fried food, drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and arrange your work and rest schedule properly. Therefore, female friends who have long-term or frequent abdominal pain are advised to seek medical attention in a timely manner and have regular physical examinations. Don’t be afraid or embarrassed to go to the gynecology department because you are busy, shy, etc., as this will only delay your condition. The Internet is not omnipotent. Doctors cannot see your actual condition and can only give you advice. It is better to “treat the disease early and prevent it from happening”.
