Hello,
Brief answer: Appendicitis is a concern.
Explanation: My opinion is that we should exclude appendicitis at first it may be acute or subacute in your condition especially, with you getting nauseous. Colitis is another explanation. I suggest my patients the following, do abdominal-pelvic ultrasonography do some labs like CBC and CRP which indicates ongoing infection.
Conclusion: I suggest you get checked by your general practitioner as soon as possible.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mahmmad Gamal
