What Causes Pain On Right Side Of Abdomen?

My wife is having moderate pain on her right side abdominal. It hurt enough last night that it work her. Her appendix has been removed as well as galb bladder. I listened to that area and it was very gurgling and active. She has also had more bowel movements than normal. She is 40.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood that your wife is most probably suffering from Gastroenteritis.
I would advise her a course of an antibiotic and metronidazole and probiotics along with symptomatic and supportive treatment .
Get the blood and stool test.
Ultrasonography to rule out any pathology like a diverticulum and lymph nodes and colonoscopy to rule out colitis or ulcer and cancer.
She may need a CT scan f the abdomen if the colonoscopy is showing some changes. Ruling out the primary cause and getting treated accordingly is very important.
I find this answer helpful
