Suggest treatment for lower abdominal pain
Patient: I ve been having constant pain in my lower right side in my abdomen. Sometimes it s shooting pain but mostly ongoing aching. It s very sensitive to touch and hurts to walk, bend or lift. I m a 20 year old woman and wondering if this could be a hernia? I ve also had severe coughing in the past month due to laryngitis and a cold. Doctor: Hi,From history it seems that you might be having Sub acute appendicitis producing this problem as there is tender spot in right lower abdomen and hurt while walking,bending or lifting weight.If you have bulging in inguinal region while coughing or lifting weight then there might be having formation of inguinal hernia.consult surgeon and get examined.Ok and take care.
