Sudden pain in the lower left abdomen may be caused by enteritis, which usually results from exposure of the abdomen to cold or consumption of contaminated food. Additionally, sudden pain in the lower left abdomen could also be due to cystitis. Since there are many possible factors leading to such pain, it is important to visit a hospital for proper examination. Once the underlying cause is identified, appropriate treatment can be provided accordingly.
