What Causes Pain In Lower Abdomen With History Of Having Appendix Removed?
I am a 54 year old female with a removed appendix. I have had a bad cold for the past week. Today, I started having pain in my lower left abdomen when I coughed or sneezed. Now, the pain is there all the time. It s a moderate pain that really hurts if I cough or sneeze.
Welcome and thanks for consulting me. I have carefully worked through your case, and realize your health worries. Being your physician, I reassure you not to worry as things will settle down very soon. It looks like you have reduced bowel movements and impacted fecal products in the large intestine and rectum. Try Lactulose syrup 4TSF at night for 3 weeks. Plenty of fluids and fruits. High fiber diet and exercise. No junk foods and no soda.
May you get very well soon and have a wonderful time ahead. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback and five star ranking, so that I may be in a better position to help you in future too.
