What Causes Lower Abdominal Pain And Fever?

My husband has lower abdominal pain that goes all the way around to his lower back and is lethargic. He has a fever of 101/102. He is 65 years old and has type 2 diabetes and is overweight. I am worried because of the high fever. What could be going on here?

There are many causes of abdominal pain with fever. Just want to know on which side there is abdominal pain and also whether there is any other symptom like diarrhea, vomiting etc.
I would advise you to take antispasmodic along with antipyretic. Tab Buscopan plus twice a day. Also get an USG whole abdomen done to rule out any abdominal pathology
