A member asked:

Woke up from lower stomach quadrant hurting really bad. used restroom, still hurt really bad, pain has subsided a little over time, still hurts. do i have appendicitis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need doctor to check: Lower right abdominal pain can be from many things. For pain there, appendicitis is always a concern (pain can worsens over time, with fever coming on). If one is constipated for several days, stool can back up all the way to the right side, and cause pain. Having gas may or may not be related to the discomfort (lactose intolerance will cause gas). A hernia or ovarian problem can also cause pain.
