Specializes in Family Medicine

Get eval: Not sure if the pain is related to the previous years surgical site, or if your appendix is inflamed, etc. With your symptoms and history, best to get a medical evaluation and some possible testing ordered to aid in the diagnosis and subsequent treatment if needed.. best wishes.
