What causes lower colon pain?

Answer by  clairecornish (13)

You might be extremely constipated, but if you have been regular I suggest going to the doctor to be checked for diverticulitis, a wrinkling of the intestines that can be very painful and cause gastrointestinal pain and distress. Good luck.

It can be things like Hemorrhoids, or appendicitis. Most of the time, its just something like being constipated, but it may also be a sign of something more serious.

One of the most common causes of lower colon pain is constipation.Simply put,this is when digested food remains in the colon for too long,allowing it to dry out and harden.Too much buildup of undigested food can cause a "plugged-up" and painful feeling.Less commonly,appendicitis can aslo cause pain in the lower colon area.
