Kidney stones can persist for years and cause symptoms only when they start moving. They can move, cause
pain and again remain in a position for
long periods of
time. Similarly chronic appendicitis too can behave this way with bouts of pain, localization of infection and inflammation and a symptom free period. Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis, infection in kidney, constipation, and an abscess in rectus abdominis muscle or psoas muscle can all cause lower right abdomen pain.
