What Causes A Sharp Pain In The Right Abdomen?
Hi Dr. Rynne I have developed a bit of a sharp pain in my right abdomen. Just above my wasteline. It feels like a side stitch . It came on slowly but won t go away. I am overweight but I am active. I was diagnosed with fatty liver ( because of my weight) But that was a long time ago. This has been bothering me for about 3 weeks. I know its an online guess - but could I have apendicitus? Thanks, Heidi

Hi,
A gall bladder stone can cause it even a kidney stone in upper part can cause that. You should get an ultrasound abdomen.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
