Abdominal pain, unable to sit for long. Done scans. What is wrong?
Patient: My son has lower right abdoominal pain and is unable to sit up for long periods of time and has problems walking because the pressure seems to hurt. The hospital sent him home because they cannot figure out what is wrong. He had 3 ultra sounds and 2 scans and they have ruled out appendix and other common problems but he still is in pain Doctor: Hi,I assume your son has been treated at a good hospital.There are many clinical reasons for pain.I would suggest that you take services of a pediatric surgeon and get a CT scan of abdomen done if still in diagnostic dilemma.Hope this helps.
