Why Is My 14 Years Old Child Suffering From Scoliosis Having Pain In Her Right Side?
My granddaughter is 14 and has scoliosis, last night around 9 or so she became ill with her left side feeling like it was cramping and then a little later she became sick, vomiting and her left side was really hurting her, around her waist or under it. She has been vomiting since about 1:00 . She doesnt seem to have a fever but she gets warm. She was doing it a lot but it has let up just a little bit. She still feels sick and her side still hurts her. She has been eating ice and drinking water. Her vomiting does not have blood in it looks yellowish. Its seems to be just on her right side.

Hello
At first you mentioned her left side and then you spoke of her right side.
If it's on her right side it well could be appendicitis
If instead it's on her left side, it could be a bacterial enteritis.
Either way she needs to see a doctor right away for an evaluation and appropriate testing and treatment
