What are the causes of sudden abdominal pain?

There are always some unexpected things in life that catch us off guard, such as sudden pain in the lower abdomen. If there is no external trauma at this time, we will be even more nervous and not know what to do. At this time, it is best to go to the hospital for examination and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor, because there are many reasons that can cause sudden pain in the lower abdomen. When this happens, you must pay attention to it.

1. Tumor pain:

When gynecological malignancies develop to the late stage, pelvic nerves may be infiltrated or compressed by the cancer, causing pain.

2. Acute inflammation causes lower abdominal pain:

Acute endometritis, acute salpingo-oophoritis, pelvic peritonitis, etc. Among them, acute salpingo-oophoritis is the most common, and in severe cases, abscesses may form. Acute pelvic infection often occurs after delivery and abortion.

3. Chronic inflammation of genitals:

Chronic cervicitis, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, dysmenorrhea, etc.

4. Non-inflammatory lower abdominal pain:

Common causes include ectopic pregnancy, ovarian tumor pedicle torsion and rupture. Lower abdominal pain caused by ectopic pregnancy is usually severe. If the fallopian tube pregnancy ruptures, the amount of bleeding is large and the rate is fast. The blood quickly spreads to the entire abdominal cavity and causes pain in the whole abdomen, leading to anemia and shock in the patient. When the pedicle of an ovarian tumor twists, it can cause persistent colic. In addition, the contents of an ovarian cyst that ruptures can irritate the peritoneum and cause pain.

5. Other causes of acute lower abdominal pain:

Acute lower abdominal pain may occur when uterine perforation occurs during artificial abortion or IUD. In addition, acute intestinal obstruction, abdominal organ stones, hydrosalpinx, intestinal torsion, dysmenorrhea, and pelvic and abdominal trauma can all cause acute lower abdominal pain.
