Had A Surgery For Ruptured Appendix. On Flagyl & Cepra. Now Having Needle Like Pain Near Kidney. Liquid Hitting Organ?
Hello
I had a ruptured appendix. and after surgery Stayed in hospital close to 10 days with bags to drain the liquid. They removed teh bags and was given antibiotics and sent home.
Its been 3 weeks now and I still have 8 days more antiobiotics (flagyl and Cepra) to go. I started having needle like pain on my right side where the kidney is located. I am just wondering if the liquid or absess is hitting my organ (kidney)
Thanks'

It would be prudent to contact your surgeon who can examine you and investigate if required as to the cause and seriousness of the problem.This may nip a incipient potentially serious problem in the bud.
