What Causes Dull Ache In Abdomen?
Hello, I have been having an intermitten dull ache on the right side of my abdomen midway between the appendix and my ribs on the far outside area. I am concerned because I knew of someone that had this same pain and had pancreatic cancer. It's not horrible pain,just a dull ache that comes and goes. What do you think I should do?

Hi
i appreciate your concern
you need not to worry until diagnosis confirmed
In my opinion it could be acid reflux or colitis
have plenty of fluids and fresh fruits
avoid junk food
take pantoprazole 40 mg once daily with antacids
If it doesn't relieve please visit your doctor for a course of antibiotic like metronidazole
Hope this helps you
wish you good health
take care
