There are many reasons for men's abdominal pain, and the common ones are prostatitis or prostatic hyperplasia. If men are older and experience abdominal pain, they need to be vigilant about these two conditions. Additionally, urinary system inflammation or stones may also cause such symptoms, with cystitis and ureteral stones being common examples.

Prostatitis

Older men are the high-risk group for prostatitis. Common symptoms include frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria. Since the prostate is close to the urethra, prostatitis will inevitably manifest in the urethra.

Prostatic Hyperplasia

Patients with prostatic hyperplasia tend to be older. Hormonal imbalance caused by aging of the body leads to prostatic hyperplasia. Clinical manifestations include frequent urination and hematuria. It is easy to self-diagnose prostatic hyperplasia.

Cystitis

When the bladder has problems, not only will there be abdominal pain, but the urethra will also be affected. For example, frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination. It is important to avoid prolonged or frequent urine retention, as it can keep the bladder in a full state, which is not conducive to its recovery.

Ureteral Stones

When there are stones in the ureter, urine cannot be expelled, and one may feel the need to urinate with lower abdominal pain. This is the body's signal for help. If there are few stones, medication may be sufficient, but if there are many stones, surgery may be required. Clinical manifestations of ureteral stones include pain and hematuria. To check for ureteral stones, a medical imaging test is sufficient.
