Lower Right Stomach Pain?
June 16th, 2009 Posted by: admin
since late november i been having lower right side stomach pain. its only on the right side its a little lower then the belly button to the right, i guess u can say its in the spot of the appendix. i got a ultrasound back in dec to check for appendicitis, it came back negative for that and negative for gallstones. the pain only is felt when i push in, no rebound pain, not tender at all. im just scared its appendicitis. its been like this now for 5 months. my gastro guy said its prob ibs. im not in dying pain i just get really nervous that its appendicitis and i need surgery. i havent been to the dr in like a month or so for this. i work out everyday without problems, the only time i feel problems is when i go running it starts to cramp up and sometimes when im really full i push and it cramps throughout my stomach. do u think this is appendicitis im freaking out i need help. im 23yr male no pervous problems. do u think this is crohns? no blood in stools. what should i do next?

What you should do, is make sure you eat a lot of salad every day..for roughage…this is really important, and I find that you can get really bound up when you don’t eat lots of fiber, fruit, and veggies, and salad every day. Also, drink lots of water everyday also…I don’t think you have IBS,…but maybe nerves or stress in your life can bind you up, as the old folks say…Just eat healthy, and get lots of sleep and you will be just fine…

Well, the lower right quadrant, at the terminal ilius, which is where the small intestine and large intestine join, is the most common area for Crohn’s Disease to strike. I have it, and that’s where I first started having pain. Do you have pain when you need to have a bowel movement? Does the pain come and go in waves? I’d say that if it’s not that bothersome, and the doctors have ruled out appendicitis, just wait it out. If you have Crohn’s or Colitis, it will get worse. If it does get worse, don’t accept any answer, find a doctor who will get to the root of the problem. I went through 2 doctors before finding a GI who was willing to help me, and it took them using trial and error with different meds for different conditions to diagnose me, and even then, no evidence of Crohn’s was visible in my colonoscopies until my third one. Best of luck to you!
