Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a sharp/stabbing pain near my belly button, and i am worried it is appendicitis. I have no fever or vomiting though. The pain is manageable but consistent and seems to be worse than last night when it started. I don t want to waste the ER doc s time if it is something like gas though.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it may not be appendicitis unless it is being tested and proved clinically till then it can be colicky abdomen pain it can be due to urinary tract stone condition it is better to get done the test and clinical examination till then you can try Tab Dicyclomine with Acetaminophen as per needed till then it is nothing to worry hope this information helps.
