Hi for the past 3 days Ive experienced dull pain around my right side and appendix but the pain has moved around. It was around my back for a while now its down near my ovaries so I assume its just something to do with them but its also moved from my right to my left. But Im still confused as to why I had that dull pain on my right for the last 3 days. Also I have a friend who is a nurse and did a check for rebound tenderness which is apparently a tell tale sign of appendicitis but I felt nothing out of the ordinary. The pain hasnt gotten worse, it just hangs around really. I also asked a friend of my dads friends who works in ICU and he asked if it got worse when I walk or cough or move in certain ways and I said no so he also thought it couldnt be my appendix. Anyone know what it could be?
Hellowelcome to Chat Doctor regarding your query,the pain may or may not be appendicitis.in your query you didn't mention your age and your periods.what about the monthly periods.are they regular and flow...if they are regular consult physician and do an ultrasound, and it will tell you the correct diagnosis for your pain.and also do a blood test. Appendicitis also sometimes is difficult to diagnose by clinical methods including rebound tenderness etc., if your periods are not regular and irregular flow consult gynecologist and she/he will guide you.hope you will understand my suggestion.have a speed recovery thank you Chat Doctor.
