Pelvic Pain- below belly button- hurts to move, can't walk sometimes

Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum. Recently I've been having terrible pain that comes out of no where. I've tried looking it up on google but nothing seems to fit. When it comes, it's a few inches below my belly button, extending down into vagina. It's not a burning feeling--it's more of an ache or stabbing/pulling pain. It's gotten so bad at times that I can't walk or stand up straight, no position makes it go away. I feel pressure and pain when I need to tinkle, and while I am, and after. Sometimes before the pain in the center starts, I feel what kind of feels like cramps on the left side... it kind of migrates down. I really hope some of this makes sence to someone. I'm 20 years old, and have no insurance yet. I am hoping someone else out there knows what this is. Thank you all for your time in reading this, I look forward to hearing back from you.

Finally!!!! It is related to prolonged periods of flexion at the waist( such as sitting, laying in fetal position, or gardening-weeding repetitiously, etc..I am a 34 year old male and have had this for about 20 years..sporadically..sometimes it goes away and does not return for several months...I am no doctor, but I am a massage therapist with excellent knowledge of Anatomy and Physiology, a lengthy background in martial arts, and am a landscaper to boot..all this is just to establish that I know pains,sprains, and strains, I know without a doubt, that this is not a UTI, bowel,constipation,g.i., issue, it's not an STD...it usually happens to me after repeated bending and raising at the hips, prolonged bending at waist..sometimes no reason at all...there is defenitely a ligament issue here.Listen to Peachnut, people. Oh, and it's not a hernia or interstitial-cystitus, it wouldn't be as sporadic as it is and/or it would advance to become something deadly by now..****, I've dealt with the pain for twenty years..it *****..Try to stretch (extend) your back slowly...s-l-ow-ly-..find the point to which it's not painful..then breathe and let it extend...pretty sure its an inflammation of the ligaments..I've also heard that the ligament has an attachment to the bladder, and when the bladder empties quickly, it pulls taught the ligament, causing the intense pain we all know and love..

Hi,
I had exactly the same problem a month ago I'm 21 and was diagnosed with a twisted bowel cus they had no clue. They tried to say I was pregnant but I wasn't, for the pain they put me on buscopan.
The other day a friend she's 28 same problem she was admitted to hospital as she couldn't stand. They did loads of tests and still don't know what it was.
If anyone knows what the cause is. Would be helpful.

I had the same thing at 18 years of age it was diagnosed as Endometriosis. I had to have a D&C it helped for a while. Don't take your pains for granted. You need to see a gynecologist. Left untreated much worse could begin. I had numerous D&C's for the same reason.  I could never have children I don't know if it had something to do with this or not but don't take chances.  Some Dr's would tell you having a baby helps, but if you are not ready for that commitment check out the D&C route.  BTW I am now in my 50's and my early 30's I had a complete hysterectomy. So make sure you are treated...there may be something new out there since my ordeal. Good luck!

I have had the same pain since I was a kid, now 38 and an RN. I'm starting to think this is a problem with the urachus. Look up urachal cyst. For me, it occurs two-thee times a year with extreme pulling sensation( like a string) pain upon trying to stand or urinate. For me, it has never lasted longer than 24 hrs at a time and I have dealt with it all of these yrs without seeking medical attention but I think it is the same thing that many of the people in this post describe and MDs just aren't familiar with it.
Here's a link....
