Hi there, As a general surgeon, I get called about right lower quadrant pain quite a bit. The most classical teaching is that appendicitis causes right lower quadrant pain, however this pain is constant, doesn t get better, and gets worse with time. It will usually be debilitating by day 2-3. I have seen chronic appendicitis a few times in my career, where the patient has a low level pain that is constant. The second thing that can cause right lower quadrant pain is ovarian cysts. Usually this pain will be cynical and related to your menstrual cycle. Other ovarian problems can also cause right lower quadrant pain, such as ovarian masses. Crohn s disease will sometimes present with right lower quadrant pain, but usually patients will have a history of diarrhea. A Hernia is also possible, and right lower quadrant hernias can sometimes occur and are known as Sphigelian hernias (very rare). I d recommend seeing your primary care physician and asking for an ultrasound of that area. If that is non-diagnostic, a CT scan could also be helpful. If none of this shows anything abnormal, and you still have the pain, you could consider a colonoscopy. I hope this is helpful. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.
