What does pain in lower right side of abdomen generally mean?

Dr. Tracy Berg answered

Specializes in General Surgery

Non-specific: Lower right abdominal pain, if associated with feeling poorly, fever, loss of appetite and deteriorating course can mean acute appendicitis. However, by itself, right lower abdominal pain is non-specific and could be related to gas, muscle soreness or constipation.

Dr Eitner and another doctor agreed
