A Comprehensive Guide to Living With Diverticulitis; Signs, Symptoms, Treatment And More

Pain In The Abdomen

One of the most prevalent signs of diverticulitis is a pain in the abdomen on the left side of the bodythat lasts longer than several days. It is not nearly as common on the right side of the body, but that does not mean it will not ever occur on the right side. Ethnicity, diet, and other factors play a significant role in the development of diverticulitis on the right side. If this pain lasts longer than a day or two, it is more likely a symptom of diverticulitis than a more common issue such as an upset stomach or constipation.
