Right Sided Abdominal Pain...please Help Posted: 01-21-06 02:55am
Tonight I began to have right sided
abdominal pain, a bit above and a bit
below the belly button, two very distinct
pain points that are linear. It feels
like it is quite superficial, like right
on top of the abdominal muscles. It is a
very obvious point of pain, I can tell
right where it is and press on it. When I
press on it it feels sore and bruised
almost, yet slightly sharp like a pin
going in. It is quite mild but it hurts
more if I stretch the stomach muscles ,
like if I put my arms above my head and
bend backwards it hurts worse. I have
been constipated today...Is it just that
or could it be more?
*no fever, no nausea, no wierd stools,
pain and constipation only.

No i'm not pregnant, I just took a test
actually, and it came out negative.

Tests can take up to 3 weeks after missed
period to come out positive. So it is
possible, right? It sounds like it
"could" be ligament pains, other than
that--idk. My daughter in law had those
really early like 4 weeks pregnant, and
she explained hers' to the same degree.
Went to the hospital, and seen her
baby,(her little peanut) they said it was
ligament pains.

Oh I didn't know it could take that
long...Yes then it is possible. The pain
doesn't seem to be getting any worse so
hopefully it isn't the appendix...I guess
I will have to wait a little bit and see
what happens with it. I also noticed that
when I stretch upward or backward the
tender points pull sharply, and almost
feels like a slightly sharp, stinging pull
going downward toward my exreme lower
abdomen.

Yes, if not ligament pains, it could be
appendix, I guess. Be very careful--if
you think appendix, you have to see a .Dr
immedietly. It is dangerous if it were
to rupture. My sons ruptured like 5
minutes before he got to the hospital.
But he was vomiting, could not keep
anything down, and I believe his bowels
were not working correctly either. Fever
and severe pains. I mean bent over cant
stand up pains, and this was before it
ruptured.
