Stomach Pain After Smoking Hookah. Worried About Appendicitis

Hi I am having right side belly pain it has been hurting for almost a week now and is getting wose. It has been waking me up in the middle of the night. I experienced a stomach ache after smooking hookah and shortly after bubbling and sharp pains in the right side ofmy stomach. What do you think I have? I am worried it is an apendicidous but I have not thrown up and I dont have a fever

Hi ! Did you some food from outside along with smooking hookah ? The chronic pain could be due to some kind of colitis. Other possibility is a silent urinary tract infection. Go for a urine and stool test. Also go for routine blood tests like hb, DC, TLC, ESR. Go for an ultrasound if your family doctor advises for it. Appendicitis is a clinical diagnosis on examining the patient on the spot, and so can not be judged now even though it could be a possibility (recurrent appendicitis). I would suggest you to report to your doctor for a clinical examination if it continues. Good luck.
