Its could be stump appendix , which was missed during your appenicectomy surgery,so it can also cause pain. Some times stritch granulome will cause this type of pain. It means remaining suture meterial causing irritation of tissue. So you have to take antibiotics along with analgesic. Need to take one more ultra sound abdomen scan.....
