A member asked:

Pain in lower right side (below ribs) 3 days, diagnosis of muscle strain. fever yesterday evening, ct suggested. fever gone for 16 hours - ct still needed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not enuf info: This is purely a clinical decision and one which must be made by the doctor trying to diagnose your condition. Frankly would need more history and a physical exam before I would entertain doing a CT. Best wishes and hope this clears up soon.
