[|Human|] I have been having pain in lower abdominal region, not left or right, but a band across, for 4 days. Bowel movements are regular but have noticed pink urine. Also very bloated. Some intermittent nausea. I thought it might be a diverticula flareup since I have that problem but the pink urine is disturbing. What could be causing this pain?
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your query. It is possible that the diverticulitis have flared up, the part is in contact with the urinary bladder in the pelvis giving rise to pink urine - this may basically be cystitis giving hematuria. In such a situation where you know you had diverticulitis, the best way is to go for CT scan first to see if there is flare-up or not. Also go for the routine lab-work. Urine for routine, microscopy, culture and sensitivity. Cystourethroscopy will help to substantiate the diagnosis. Get started with the medical management in the form of antibiotics and supportive medicines. Rest of the treatment will depend upon the findings and proper diagnosis.
