i had an appendectomy two days ago on an appendix that was not bursted. i have sharp pains in my stomach and back with swelling what could it be?

Question

Appendectomy if the surgeon discovers that an appendix is burst, should the procedure be done laparoscopically or traditionally?

Answer 1

Pain after surgery: It is usually normal to have pain after a surgical procedure but if the pain is severe and associated with other type of abdominal issues you should be checked immediately in order to rule out post surgical infections or complications.

Answer 2

Do not think so : I am not aware of any connection between celiac disease, which primarily involves gluten intolerance and causes diarrhea, and sciatica. Sciatica is usually caused by edema around this nerve or pinching of the nerve.

Answer 3

MAY BE: May be if it affects vitamin absorption and cause vitamin b1, b6 and B12 deficiency.

Answer 4

Can be normal: Some pain and swelling can be normal at this stage. May take close to 1 full year for complete resolution with good therapy. Signs of metal allergy include persistent pain and swelling, skin rashes, including hives , and x-ray findings of component loosening. A sample of the metal, provided by the implant company, can be taped to your arm to confirm. Ask your surgeon.

Answer 5

Return to your Docto: If pain is not better after few seats of antibiotics, you either have the wrong antibiotics or something else is causing the pain, so you better return to be checked.

Answer 6

Probably unrelated: Abdominal pain and tongue numbness are likely unrelated. Many things can cause right sided abdominal pain, even after gallbladder removal. The most common things that cause tongue numbness is tongue swelling, most commonly due to allergies or poisonings.

Answer 7

See your Dr.: Her tongue getting numb probably has nothing to do with the pain which may be gas.

Answer 8

Neither: If it's a stone not much but medication and passing the stone will help. My condolences.

Answer 9

Kidney infection: Kidney infection (pyelonephritis) generally causes fever, chills and very significant flank pain. One generally feels "sick". Bladder infection (cystitis) rarely causes systemic symptoms. Discomfort in the pelvic area and irritative voiding symptoms are typical.
