Brief Answer: its not likely to be appendicitis Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for writing to HCM. If the pain is only on doing certain movements then its more like to be of muscular in origin and very less chances of it being due appendix. Most likely you might had stretched a muscle during play or excersice, and now you need to give it some rest for it to heal. If the pain is more, you may take a muscle relaxant from any pharmacy. Hope i have been helpful. If any further query, do write. Regards Dr. Ashish Verma
