What causes sudden sharp pain in the lower right abdomen which worsens on moving the legs and shifting weight?
Patient: i have a sharp pain in my lower right abdominal region. hurts worse when i move my legs or shift my weight, just started earlier today, after i went to the bathroom i couldnt walk it hurt so bad. Doesnt appear to be swollen. im 18 female and 120 lbs 5'3. i am not on my period. Doctor: Hi. the pain in right lower abdomen which increases on movements is suggestive of an inflamed appendix or a twisted ovarian cyst as the commonest of causes. I would advise you to have an urgent sonography of abdomen to ascertain the cause and decide further management.
