What Causes Pain In Lower Right Abdomen?

Thanks. I'm 82 years old and have had a pain in my lower right abdomen, right at the place where the crease that adjoins the upper thigh and the abdomen. It has been about 2 days, not real severe, on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the worse, it is about 1 or two. I thought of possible a strain in the muscle tissue, or perhaps appedix probloms.

Hi,
From history by keeping site of discomfort and age there is more possibility of having formation of inguinal hernia called bubonocele.
Due to having weak abdominal muscles it is likely of having hernia.
There might be having few enlarged tender inguinal lymph nodes as well.
Consult your doctor, on clinical examination it will give more precise clue about your problem.
Ok and take care.
