Intestinal virus?: Sudden onset of left lower abdominal pain often is the precursor of either vomiting or diarrhea. Best to put your child in a warm bath to calm the stomach muscles; next treat with tylenol (acetaminophen) for fever; next a clear liquid diet --which includes liquids with electrolytes. The appendix is in the right lower abdominal area, so unless it travels there without vomiting or diarrhea, no worries.
