I had an appendectomy in sept of this year and in the past week I have been experiencing a dull to sharp pain in my lower right abdomen. The pain is followed by a bm. The pain is strong enough to be concerning and certainly not a "cramp". Any suggestions?
HI. It is almost 8 months and probably this pain is not concerning the appendix or appendectomy. There is BM after pain can be suggestive of colitis- inflammation of a large bowel. Proper course of antibiotic and metronidazole should solve the problem. On a safer side get one ultrasonography done to see what possible problem would be there or to rule this out.
