Pain and distension on both sides of the lower abdomen may be related to conditions such as ureteral stones or gastrointestinal dysfunction, or could also be associated with pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, uterine prolapse, and other disorders. Since specific treatments vary depending on the underlying cause, patients are advised against self-treatment without medical guidance. It is recommended that patients visit a hospital for appropriate examinations to determine the exact cause and receive targeted treatment accordingly.
