Many possibilities: Abdominal pain needs face-to-face evaluation that can only happen by making an appointment to see your primary care physician or the surgeon who performed your appendectomy. They will ask many questions, perform a careful physical examination, and may recommend lab and/or diagnostic tests. There are simply too many causes of abdominal pain to speculate with this information.
