Many men react that they always have unexplained stomach pain, and it's left side pain. We found experts to understand that if men really have such problems, they need to pay attention, because it may be caused by prostatitis.
1、 Prostatodynia
After medical research, it has been found that men with chronic prostatitis can also cause left flank pain. "However, the diagnosis and treatment of chronic prostatitis are very difficult. Bacteria cannot be found in the patient's urine, and pus cells and white blood cells cannot be seen under a microscope in the prostate fluid.". Although the diagnosis is difficult, the symptoms of prostatitis are very obvious. Common symptoms include frequent urination, urgency, and difficulty urinating, especially pain in the perineum and scrotum. Some people even feel pain immediately after sitting down.
2、 Acute pain
Experts have pointed out that acute abdominal pain is the most common and one of the most dangerous conditions for the problem of what constitutes left flank pain. The so-called acute abdominal pain refers to a patient's conscious sudden abdominal pain, often caused by internal or external organ diseases. The former is referred to as visceral left flank pain, while many patients are often accompanied by a series of related symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sweating. "Left flank pain is transmitted by visceral nerves, while the latter is transmitted by somatic nerves. Therefore, it is called somatic left flank pain, which is mostly persistent pain.".
3、 Urinary system stones
The reason why men often experience pain on the left side of their stomachs is closely related to the urinary system. In addition to typical waist and abdominal cramps and nausea and vomiting, urinary stones can cause symptoms such as difficulty urinating and pain in urination in the vast majority of patients. Moreover, the pain is usually reflected from the waist to the ipsilateral groin or perineum, and this pain is fundamentally different from acute appendicitis because the former can also manifest persistent pain in the right lower abdomen and left side, and also accompanied by local tenderness and rebound pain; "Patients with acute appendicitis often have fever and chills in addition to abdominal distension and pain. There may be tenderness in the seasonal ribs and lower abdomen, and the tenderness is deeper, with less rebound pain. Usually, there is urinary tract irritation, and pus balls are commonly seen in urine routine tests.".
4、 Left flank pain after sex
Some men experience left flank pain, mostly after sex. Experts have pointed out that the condition of left flank pain at this time is mostly caused by inflammation and infection of the urinary and reproductive system. For example, chronic prostatitis, epididymitis, orchitis, etc. In addition to this, varicocele can also cause pain in the left side of the stomach. At this time, it is important to pay attention to going to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible, in order to help you prevent the deterioration of your condition, and at the same time, it is also important to cultivate a good lifestyle.
The above are the most common causes and symptoms of left flank pain in daily life. Experts remind men to be vigilant in daily life.
