Suggest Treatment For Sharp Right-sided Lower Abdominal Pain And Soft Stool

I began having some sharp pain in lower right side a couple days ago. I have had regular bowel movements, today it became more soft/diarrhea. The pain is worse. And hurts to walk in that area. Hurts when I lay on my left side also. Sharp at times. But dull also.

Hello,

You are suggested to take PPIs, one stat when needed for relieve from pain. It should get relieved. If pain remains persistent you can take Spasmol, a combination medicine of dicyclomine, dextropropoxyphene and paracetamol. You will get relieved but take it after taking some food. Your symptom may be indicative of medical conditions like appendicitis, hepatitis, gallstones, kidney issue, hernia, etc.

You are suggested to get clinically examined by a GP, get required blood tests and imaging tests (X-ray, CT, MRI) done. Your treatment will depend on the pathology detected & the severity of the symptoms. Other causes of such symptoms are gastroenteritis, food poisoning, IBS, constipation, etc. Get clinically evaluated, get treated at the earliest.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
