Why do women have lower abdominal pain and frequent urination?

For women, if there is pain in the lower abdomen and symptoms of frequent urination, you should be alert, as it is likely a urinary tract infection. You should go to the hospital for a routine urine test in time. Some other gynecological inflammations, such as vaginitis, are also prone to cause such symptoms. You should pay attention to a light diet, take timely medication, and get enough rest.

Urinary tract infection is a common surgical disease, which belongs to urology. In life, there are always some female patients with urinary tract infection who have symptoms of lower back pain. What is going on? This is a question in many people's minds, so today the editor will explain it to you.

Physiological differences make women the main group of patients with urinary tract infections. In addition to bladder irritation symptoms, such as urinary urgency, frequent urination, and urinary pain, many female patients sometimes also have low back pain. What is the reason for this?

Urinary tract infection causes gynecological inflammation

Gynecological inflammation is one of the common causes of low back pain in women. When a urinary tract infection occurs, the number of bacteria in the bladder increases. In addition, the patient's bladder wall is congested and edematous, so the bacteria can easily enter the pelvic cavity through the bladder wall, causing the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes to become infected and inflamed. Inflammation of these organs can cause low back pain. If the lower back pain of female patients with urinary tract infection continues to worsen and symptoms such as lower abdominal pain and bloating appear, a gynecological examination should be conducted in time to see if gynecological inflammation occurs.

Urinary tract infection leading to ureteritis or acute pyelonephritis

During a urinary tract infection, the amount of bacteria in the urine increases, and some bacteria can migrate retrogradely to the ureter and renal pelvis, causing ureteritis or acute pyelonephritis. The clinical manifestations of these two diseases include low back pain, urgency, frequency, and pain when urinating, which are the same as urinary tract infection, so they are easily overlooked by patients. If a female patient has been taking medication for urinary tract infection for a long time and the symptoms of urgency, frequency and pain when urinating do not improve, and lower back pain occurs, consider whether ureteritis or acute pyelonephritis has occurred.

Warm reminder: The above is the reason for low back pain caused by urinary tract infection in women that the editor introduced to you. I believe everyone has already understood it, so we must take health care measures in our daily life.
