2. Lower abdominal pain is a symptom of having chlamydia.
You may be tempted to use over-the-counter pain medication, such as Tylenol to relieve the pain. The pain will persist since it’s a bacterial infection. Abdominal pain shouldn’t last for a long period of time. It isn’t a good idea to take over-the-counter pain relievers for a long time. It can cause your other organs to become affected.
It is best to take a trip to your doctor so that he or she can give you a thorough examination. The examination needs to include getting blood tests. The results will show that you have chlamydia. Even before you are diagnosed, it is best to not have intercourse. It is even worse on a woman because if she is pregnant, it could have spread to her unborn child.
The pain in the lower abdominal area may be intense, especially if you waited too long to seek treatment.
