Lower Abdominal Pain, Relieved By Sitting Down. CT Scan And Hip MRI Normal. Due To Cecum?
What problems could the Cecum cause..What symptoms? I have had pain on my lower right side for 3 yrs..It starts with a burning pain usually whe iam in the kitchen cooking dinner or at the grocery store or mall.I have to sit down or it will get really bad , sitting down helps it go away, but will leave me with a sore side some times the pain will last 15 min.or 30 min.Will get its most days but not every day. Have had 3 ct scans Hip MRI. Colon Oscopy nothing showed up. Never get the pain sleeping or watching tv. At one time thought it was a hernia.... Iam a female 79 and in good health. Iam at a loss.....Could it be the Cecum?
Welcome to HCM.It would be prudent to do a MRI scan of the lower thoracic and lumbar spine to rule out any disc prolapse/canal stenosis/compression of spinal nerve roots supplying the lower abdomen which may be causing the symptoms..Ruling out any pelvic pathology would also help.
