Dull abdominal pain on the lower right side, no pain on pressing, good appetite. Cure?
Patient: I have a slight abdomen pain very dull on a scale of 1 to 10 may be a 2. I think i lifted something 2 days ago..and it happens to be on the lower right side of the abdomen may be once like every 5 minutes...I can jump and run without any problem....I have good appetite ...I can press all the way down on the lower side without any problem wondering whether it is appendicitis or a cramp Doctor: Dear sir/madam, it definitely doesnt sounds like appendicitis, you would have constant pain in DLQ increasing on pressure, also associated with fever,nausea and vomiting. So it can be cramp or u simply injured some of abdominal muscles. You shouldnt be worried except this pain persists and become worse. If you want to be sure you can do abdominal ultrasound but i dont think its necessary.   Wish you good health.Ivan Romich
