Hello,
You may be suffering from Diclofenac induced acute Gastritis. Diclofenac can cause urine retention, abdominal pain and stomach ulcers formation et cetera.
Avoid taking above tablet, use tablet Pantoprazole before breakfast for one week. You can use mild Tramadol + Paracetamol for pain.
If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
