Patient: My brother is 20 years old, he has got his appendicides operation done years ago, it was very complicated since it had already ruptured for five days then. A small part of the intestines was removed since they had been severely infected. Ever since he has been complaining of pains in the stomach . My question to you is.. What medicines should he take right away since its pain right now, the pain is felt in the lower side of the stomach, the portion what we call the abs. Doctor: Hi Its not advised to take a painkiller for abdominal pain without consulting a doctor. You should take your brother to a surgeon so that cause of pain can be diagnosed
