More info needed: Where in the abdomen is the discomfort located? Typically appendicitis localizes to the right lower abdomen and associated tenderness there is classic. Sharp,fleeting pains in other parts of the abdomen are often gas pains or mild intestinal tract spasms. If symptoms persist,worsen or localize to the right lower abdomen, especially with tenderness, consult a physician for examination.
