Hi I m a 14 year old female and my upper right stomach hurts. It s stabbing pain. It s not a period cramp it s worse. It s so bad that I can t stand straight without have severe pain. Laying in a fetal position helps a little. I don t want to wake up my parents unless it s something extremely serious
I read your question very carefully, and I understand your concern. I would like to ask more questions regarding your situation in able for you to get the best information, but the way you describe it, it actually might be an emergency, even though in your group age it is not common. Do you have a rigid, hard abdomen? Is it a sharp sudden abdominal pain? Do you have other associated signs and symptoms, like fever, nausea or vomiting? Did you have before stomach problems, like burning sensation, bloating, pain? If you answer to yes to the questions above, then you should go in the ER. Wishing you a good health!
