What Does Recurring Pain In Right Side Of Abdomen Mean?

I had right side adbominal pain for the last four days.(14yrs.Female) It started during the first basketball practice of the winter break. I got dizzy during the first few min. into practice then I'd feel like vomitting, a little vomit did come up then the pain set in whenever I rested from the drills and after I had a water break it sometimes came back stronger, it made it harder to breathe, the pain eased during practice but came back during or after I eat, when I moved around even when I standed still and when I sit down sometimes Should I be worried?

Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

From the history of pain, it looks to be of some inflammation inside abdomen. If I were your doctor, I would go for blood tests like a CBC, ESR, LFT, serum amylase and lipase, and an ultrasound of whole abdomen to rule out any calculi disease in gall bladder and urinary tract. In addition, with the physical examination of the abdomen and the investigations, I would also try to rule out any chances of an appendicitis. Till then I would prescribe an anti spasmodic and a proton pump inhibitor drug for a symptomatic relief. Further management would depend on the result of the clinical assessment and reports of related investigations.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef
