3. Digestive Disorders
There are a few digestive disorders that might cause pain in the abdomen. The upper part of the colon and the last section of the small intestine connect in this area, which means pain symptoms could be bowel-related.
Pain could indicate conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease, or even diverticulitis. Diseases such as Crohn’s typically affect the small intestine and flare up a couple of hours after eating. If the pain is recurring, a chronic digestive disorder could be the issue.
