What Is The Remedy For Abdominal Pain?
I am having pain in my lower left abdomen. It has lasted for 2 days. I am 73 and have had colon cancer with part of my colon removed. 20 years ago. I am diabetic and have been on a strict diet with a lot of salads. I have been diagnosed with diverticulosis before and I wonder if that is it.

Hi.
Pain in left lower abdomen can be just a colitis or due to diverticulitis or enteritis.
A course of an antibiotic may solve your problem .
I hope you are on a program of reviews for recurrence of cancer ( which you not have as it is 20 yeas,)
