Dear Ask The Doctor: I have a pain in left side lower abdominal groin area. I get it mostly at night and slightly during the day. I continue to work out Bike and Eliptical Machines No problem but when I try to do abdominal exercises I have the pain. I am 64, male and 175 lbs 5'10"
Dear Joe: Pain in the lower left abdomen could be due to many causes and it will be difficult for me to point out a single cause of your pain. Since you work out Bike and Eliptical Machines, my probable diagnosis would be a musculo-skeletal strain. If your pain does not subside with over the counter pain medications, I would advise you to see your doctor for other causes such as kidney or urinary infection, diverticular disease or inguinal hernia. |
