bbi1 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Since a few hours ago, started getting pain on the very right side of my abdomen, about the same height as the belly button. The pain only happens when I walk, when the right foot hits the ground. Pain varies from being mild to occasionally sharp. Could this be appendicitis or something else causing this? Anyone else had anything similar before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else had anything similar before? Symptons of appendicitis: Pain in your lower right belly or pain near your navel that moves lower. This is usually the first sign. Loss of appetite Nausea and vomiting soon after belly pain begins Swollen belly Fever of 99-102 degrees Can’t pass gas Other less common symptoms of appendicitis include: Dull or sharp pain anywhere in your upper or lower belly, back, or rear end Painful or difficult peeing Vomiting before your belly pain starts Severe cramps Constipation or diarrhea with gas If you have any of these symptoms, see a doctor right away. Timely diagnosis and treatment are important. Don’t eat, drink, or use any pain remedies, antacids, laxatives, or heating pads. All of above from Webmd website.

bbi1 Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 Don't have any of the other symptoms except for the pain on the right side of abdomen when walking (when stepping on right foot). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisperone Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 I would guess your not suffering from appendicitis unless you develop symptons. Hope you feel better soon whatever the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Los Luver Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 This summer I experienced this symptom. I felt the same and exactly when my right heel hits the ground, I felt like a kick on the right side of my belly. Not big pain but I remarked it.... I thought it was my lever... Along with this symptom and some others. I went to my Dr. after few tests, he said nothing was wrong with the lever....14th of June, I had a real pain went to the emergency, I was sent to the hospital to take the gastroscopy test, the Dr suspected it was the estomac.... Well, at the hospital they found out that it was actually Galle bladder...... I had some antibiotics, it was Ok for 4 weeks. The end of Jully, I had pain, I mean Pain..... the 3rd of August I had an operation, they removed the galle bladder. I'm fine now.... well, an other negative side of the story, I had to cancel my trip to LoS, lost money I paid for my hotels in BKK & Patts. The flight ticket I got only like 30-35% of the money I paid (taxes&other fees).. Advice: You have to go to your Dr, to check wheither it's galle bladder or appendicitis......

Sent from my SM-J701F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Ok thanks for all the replies. The pain went away last night so it was only for a few hours that it lasted. Still worth going to the hospital to check it up? Does anyone know if Pattaya Memorial decent enough for them to check this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Memorial would be fine.If pain is totally gone, no fever, no nausea, no tenderness when you press on the spot, normal appetite and bowel movements then I think you can skip it until/unless it recurs.

tutsiwarrior Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 some things can 'mimic' appendicitis symptoms...many years ago when I got bad hangovers and things associated with dehydration which result from too much drinkin' I thought that I was gonna die...then I'd re hydrate, lay off the booze and become right as rain again...easy enough to do when yer in yer 20s... not to say that being aware of genuine symptoms is not important...acute appendicitis can kill ye if not treated in a timely manner...

And later in life we pass stones (which can be extremely painful) or have gallbladder stones block flow to breakdown fats (although that pain is normally a bit higher in abdomen I believe). I know gallbladder stones can be seen in simple ultrasound as wife just had removed), Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
