[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your query. Read the history and understood it. To recapitulate:Your husband has - severe pain - occasional swelling in left lower abdomen - radiates to the back - chills, sweats and fatigue. All these symptoms are suggestive of a close -cavity infection in the abdomen. The probable causes can be :-Pyelonephritis.-Severe colitis with an active infection. I would advise you the following:investigations:*Routine blood investigations like Complete blood picture, blood sugar, urea, creatinine, liver function tests, thyroid function tests.*Urine -routine and microscopy, culture and sensitivity. *Stool: routine, microscopy, occult blood, culture and sensitivity.*Ultrasonography of abdomen, All these investigations along with a physical examination by a General Surgeon would help you to get an exact diagnosis and a plan for a perfect treatment.
