A member asked:

I have a pulsing pain in the right middle side of stomach...across and down from naval accompanied by abdominal swellong..what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Abdominal pain: Seek attention immediately. This could be a number of conditions, but one possibility is appendicitis. You need to have this condition ruled out. Other times, ovarian cysts can cause similar pain, but you really need to see a licensed professional about this as soon as possible. Blood work and imaging tests may aid in the diagnosis.
