Pain In Lower Abdomen, Upset Stomach, Stabbing Pain. Is It Appendicitis?
I have a pain in my lower right abdomen . I have not been sick of had stomach upset but the pain is worse when i take a deep breathe or move around. Sometimes the pain is also stabbing . I am worried it could be appendicitus but i also think it could be a stomach muscle problem. F it was appendicitus would i be vomiting? i
Dear sir, vomiting i just one of the symptoms of appendicitis. it is usually associated with right lower abdominal pain, nausea and muscle guarding and fever. BUT also absence of these symptoms doesnt exclude the appendicitis. The best way to rule this out is to go to hospital and do blood test and ultrasound. If it hurts when you breath it can also be cholecystits or gastric disorder such as hiatal hernia or GERD.
Wish you good health, Ivan Romich
