lower right pain


Question Posted Sunday October 28 2007, 8:03 pm

15/f

alright so this is the 2nd time this is happened.
this weird aching pain on the front right side of my stomach like below my belly button and to the right.
this has happened once before a couple weeks ago and it was probably for about 7 hours and now i have it again and its been about 3 hours, does anybody have an opinion on what this could be?

"Abdominal pain is caused by inflammation (e.g., appendicitis, diverticulitis, colitis ), by stretching or distention of an organ (e.g., obstruction of the intestine, blockage of a bile duct by gallstones, swelling of the liver with hepatitis), or by loss of the supply of blood to an organ (e.g., ischemic colitis). To complicate matters, however, abdominal pain also can occur without inflammation, distention or loss of blood supply. An important example of this latter type of pain is the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It is not clear what causes the abdominal pain in IBS, but it is believed to be due either to abnormal contractions of the intestinal muscles (e.g., spasm) or abnormally sensitive nerves within the intestines that give rise to painful sensations inappropriately (visceral hyper-sensitivity)."


As you can see, it can be a number of things. It could be nothing but on the other hand, it may need treatment. Visit your doctor for a thorough diagnosis.

You should go to the doctors, like now. It could actually be your appendix. The appendix can actually explode inside of you, and cause poison to go throughout your body. Not to scare you or anything, but that is how serious it could be; so go to the doctors:]
