What Does Abdominal Pain On The Right Side Indicate?
I felt a pain inside in my right abdomen that feels like a tendon or something pulling when I turn over or get up from lying down. It is about even with my navel. Am thinking a tear or a hernia. Does not react when I lift something. My GP retired last week. What type of doctor should I see to resolve this?

Hello,my name is dr.Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
It can be a hernia or appendicitis.Other symptoms of appendicitis can be loss of appetite,nausea or vomiting soon after abdominal pain begins.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult a surgeon.
Hope my answer was helpful.If you have any other question Ill be glad to help.
Regards,
dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
