What Does Pain In The Lower Abdomen On The Right Side Indicate?

I have been having lower right pain in my abdomen. When I bend, or move or lay in certain way it s uncomfortable. It s like I can feel something there when I bend, move, sit or lay in certain positions. If I push just slight to the side of my hip bone it s painful and the pain lingers. I m also nauseous on and off throughout the day. Any ideas?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello. Pain lower abdomen on right side is sometimes indicative of appendicitis. But more often it will be pain of gastritis which is more common. Follow a few lifestyle tips

1. Do not eat spicy food
2. Take medications for gastritis- pantop/omez/rantac
3. Take little food at frequent intervals. Breakfast around 8am, small snack at 11am, lunch at 1pm, small snack at 4pm and dinner at 8pm
4. Drink plenty of water
5. Do not smoke, take alcohol or tobacco and even excess of coffee and tea
6. Do not take much of stress. Stress aggravates gastritis
7. Do regular exercise. Atleast half an hour per day
8. Learn meditation techniques
9. Follow this regularly for 21 days. It is said that anything you practice regularly for 21 days becomes a habit

If not better consult a doctor and get abdominal scan done.
