What Does Recurring And Intense Lower Abdomen Pain Indicate?

My name is dorrett and I am 51 years old, I have a constant pain at my lower left abdomen, for over six months that seems to not going anywhere, I've been to so many doctors about this problem and the answer is the same, they don't see anything wrong, sometimes I don't feel it for days and it just starts up again and it's very intense

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Recurrent pain in the left lower abdomen for over 6 months has to have a reason and meeting so many Doctors does not solve your problem means that you have to consult a Specialist called a Gastroenterologist for clinical evaluation, examination and investigations as follows:
Get stool test for three consecutive days.
Tests of blood, urine.
CT scan of the abdomen.
Colonoscopy.
If anything is found during the course get the specific treatment to get alright.
If all the above investigations are normal then the obvious diagnosis can be IBS that is irritable bowel syndrome. Get over the control of the stress and anxiety that is the main cause of colitis of this nature.
I find this answer helpful
