What causes burning sensation in lower abdominal area?
Patient: Burning sensation in lower abdominal area for several months now. Worry or not? Not indigestion related. I am the oldest anorexic still fighting a 60-year old problem which surfaced again in last five years due to major life changing events Was dormant for many years, but here I am, 5 7 and about 90 lbs. 71 years of age, but am curious about the burning sensation(s) lately. Thanks in advance. Doctor: Hi.Thanks for your query. The cause of burning sensation in the lower abdominal area for several months. You have to definitely worry. You are old anorexic and got re-activated, the burning pain must be due to intestinal infection. I would advise you the following:CT scan of the abdomen, tests of blood, urine and stool. The treatment will definitely be related to the symptoms.
