Which symptom is NOT commonly associated with diverticulitis?

Chronic fatigue is not commonly associated with diverticulitis. Diverticulitis primarily presents with acute abdominal pain, specifically in the lower left quadrant due to inflammation of the diverticula in that area. Nausea and vomiting, as well as changes in bowel habits such as constipation or diarrhea, can occur as a direct result of the inflammation and irritation in the digestive tract.

Patients with diverticulitis usually experience significant abdominal discomfort, fever, and gastrointestinal symptoms. While chronic fatigue can be seen in a variety of conditions, it is not a classic or direct symptom of diverticulitis itself. It may occur in the context of a prolonged illness or recovery, but is not characteristic of the acute phase of diverticulitis when the more specific symptoms are present.
