it does not hurt much when i move around...I still have the pain in lower right once in a while all day... What causes this?
Appendicitis usually causes lower right quadrant pain, but there are plenty of exceptions. Based on what you describe, I think you're having some trouble moving things through your GI system. The waves of pain can be caused by the motion of the gut as it tries to push something too firm through, and every time a wave of gut motion comes through, it hurts.
Welcome to the gastroenterology community! This really doesn't sounds like an appendicitis. It sounds like you are having some constipation which can be caused by reduced exercise from straining your muscles. I would recommend increasing your fiber intake, your intake of fruits and vegetables, and your intake of water.
re very young for this to be cancer. Have they checked you for appendicitis? It causes pain to go down your leg, and pain between your ovary area and navel. I have never heard of anyone having sciatica pain with colon cancer, I think this was more of a coincidence with the lady you speak of. A blood test would tell your doctor if this is appendicitis. I have seen cases where it lasts quite awhile before becoming really inflammed.
The other symptoms for Appendicitis are fever, nausea, vomiting and malaise. The other causes for pain could be urinary tract infection, pelvic infections, renal colic and sometimes bowel infections. So, please consult your primary care physician and if you cannot reach him soon enough go to the concerned hospitals emergency. Regards.

I had asked if it was appendicitis, but the doctor said it was not. But I am wondering what else it could be then or do you think the doctor misdiagnosed?

He told me that if the pain persisted, within two days, I should return to the clinic or to the ER, on account of it could be appendicitis. I am eighteen years old, broke, and under the care of my parents who refuse to return me to any doctor. I doubt I have appendicitis on account of my stomach has had pain for at least a week, and there's been no sign of any rupture.
For a while now, maybe a week and a bit, I have had LRQ pain. It seems to move around, from the appendix area to the groin, and wraps around to the back and kidney area. As well, a mix of constipation and then diahrrea. I'm really quite terrified of it being appendicitis or worse yet, peritonitis. I have seen two health professionals, one at a clinic and the other in the emergency room, both of them saying its nothing, perhaps just a pulled or strained muscle.
I have had constipation and fecal impaction issues since then. I used to poop 2-3 times a day, now some days I do not go at all. I have taken oral laxative magnesium citrate during carafate and that only caused me to pass liquid that had little to smell, no feces. I took milk of magnesia which causes paste-like feces or small feces, but nothing large or what I am used to.
If you believe you are experiencing appendicitis pain, please call your doctor immediately. If s/he is not available, a visit to the ER. Vomiting with appendicitis is usually due to an emergency situation, so you don't want to wait until that happens. Be well.
For the past few days I've had pain right above my hip but its not severe and i don't have any other symptoms but I'm very scared right now because i think i have appendicitis i don't want surgery...my mom who is a nurse said that it cannot be that because the pain i describe isn't severe and that i should lay off the coffee that i drink.
About five months ago, I had lower right side pain that lasted a couple days, and after several tests (including CT), the doctor said all I had were swollen lymph nodes and after a series of antibiotics, I was fine (no appendicitis). Well, the pain is sort of back and it has been for a couple of days. The pain is not constant nor severe. It really is kind of a pressure-type pain for a couple of seconds and then dissipates.
Hi all,
This is my first time on this site but I am having the same issues as everyone else. I am hoping someone can give me some kind words. I have had really really bad constipation and finally went to my gastro doc. He did an xray which showed poop was everywhere! I did fleet for 2 days but still felt really bloated. also noticed a pain (kinda like a muscle cramp) on my lower right side. that seems to be where the bloating it too.
The first symptom one might guess constipation and a need for more fiber, such as daily metamucil, in your diet. Flatulence can come with stress, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation (I believe) and I don't know what all. Stomach pain can come with gastritis, ulcers, heartburn, cancer, and probably more.
I have all if the appendicitis symptoms ( bloating, diarrhea, constipation, severe abdominal pain followed by vomiting) but aren't these all pregnancy things to? I'm 41/2 weeks.
I went to out of hours dr at night and they sent me to hosp. No sign of appendicitis. They found an ovarian cyst but not on the side that is sore. Dr said it is random pain...still have the pain tonight. Any ideas what it could be. I have no other symptoms. Should i go to gp?
I have lower abdominal pain, constipation, 99° temp, nausea, but no rebound pain. I’ve had this since saturday and it’s just getting worse. should i go to the doctor or just wait?
If you are 18 year old male it sounds to me like you have appendicitis, Go to a surgeon tell him you are having problems passing gas and constipation and diarrhea and he will order a laporscopy but tell him to take it out no matter what. I had mine out last week and it I feel remarkably better, and I want to explain to people that the appendix has strange symptoms and will cause real damage if you don't get it removed. Remember contact a SURGEON in your area not a Gastro specialist.
