Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Pain in abdomen on the right side and the right hip may not be related to the neck surgery 2 years ago.
Hence I would advise you the following in such a situation:
First of all get a clinical diagnosis by consulting your Family Doctor so that a proper clinical examination can be done to decide the probable causes which can be as follows:
Appendicitis.
Colitis or typhlitis.
Lymph node or any other inflammatory mass.
Stone in the right ureter.
This can further be diagnosed by tests of stool, blood and urine; ultrasonography and CT scan if needed.
CT scan can be extended to see for the causes of hip joint too in the same sitting.
About the neck surgery: you should consult the Doctors who operated on your neck to get a proper cause and see for the probable diagnosis and have proper management. This can be due to muscle spasm as the most common cause.
