    In boys, inflammation of the urethral orifice system causes distension and pain in the lower abdomen. Prostatitis can cause urinary tract distension and pain. Spasm of the lower abdominal muscles or intestines can also cause distension and pain in the lower abdomen.

    The common side effects of lower abdominal pain in boys are headache, red cheeks, and indigestion, but they are generally not serious and subside quickly. Less common side effects include temporary visual color changes (such as the inability to distinguish between blue and green objects or seeing these objects with a blue halo), increased sensitivity to light, and blurred vision. So what causes boys’ abdominal pain?

    1. Prostatitis

    It is the most common disease causing abdominal pain in boys. It often occurs among young people. When it occurs, it is common such as lower abdominal pain, frequent urination at night, frequent urination and urgency, inability to hold back urination, and pain during urination.

    2. Ureteritis, ureteral stones

    If a boy has stomach pain, it is also accompanied by lumbar spinal pain or waist soreness, severe pain and microscopic hematuria, and urethral pressure and pain.

    3. Acute appendicitis

    Also known as appendicitis, this disease may occur in men of all ages, but it most commonly occurs between the ages of 20 and 40. Most patients migrate from upper abdominal pain to right lower abdominal pain, and the pain reaches its peak in about 4 to 6 hours. At this time, the pain may even be aggravated by coughing or moving the body.

    4. Acute cholecystitis

    This kind of pain usually occurs after meals, and the pain is usually located in the right upper abdomen or epigastrium. Sometimes the pain will spread to the right shoulder or shoulder bone, and it will be combined with fever, vomiting, jaundice and other conditions.

    5. Acute enteritis

    Food poisoning is mostly caused by eating unclean ingredients and is usually accompanied by severe vomiting, diarrhea, fever and other symptoms.

    Experts remind men that men with lower abdominal pain should not ignore it, but should be alert and seek medical treatment immediately. Generally, doctors will perform abdominal B-ultrasound, routine blood tests, routine blood tests, etc. If necessary, they should also perform a CT examination of the entire abdomen.

    What causes boys' abdominal pain?

    1. Pain in the right lower abdomen

    The first thing to think about is whether you have appendicitis. For example, if it starts with pain in the upper abdomen and turns into pain in the right lower abdomen a few hours later, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, etc., acute appendicitis is more common. In addition, problems with the colon, cecum, and right urethra tube should also be considered. If it is accompanied by frequent urination, urgency, hematuria, etc., it is likely to be ureteral stones.

    2. Right upper abdominal pain

    Problems with the liver and gallbladder should be given top priority, such as acute and chronic hepatitis, liver cancer, cholecystitis, gallstones, etc., which may cause right upper quadrant pain. In addition, you should also pay attention to whether there are problems in the pancreas, duodenum, right kidney, right segment of intestine, etc.

    3. Left upper abdominal pain

    Problems with the spleen and stomach should be considered first, and special attention should be paid to the pancreas, left kidney, and left segment of the intestines. If the pain in the left upper abdomen persists, worsens with paroxysms, spreads to both waists, and increases with meals, it is likely to be acute pancreatitis.

    4. Left lower abdominal pain

    It may be a problem with the lower sigmoid colon or duodenum, such as intestinal obstruction, appendicitis, enteritis, dysentery, gastrointestinal parasitic infection, etc. It should also be considered whether it is related to the left urethral tube.

    5. Abdominal abundant pain

    It may be caused by a variety of reasons, such as gastric ulcer, appendicitis, cholecystitis, etc., which may cause persistent and severe pain in the entire abdomen.

    6. Pain around belly button

    The key should be to consider the problems of the colon and pancreas.
