My son recently had his appendix out by keyhole surgery ,after about three week s after has been complaining of upper pain under the rib cage on the right hand side . We have been back to the hospital twice having MRI s done also had the camera put down I am worried because it dose not seem to go away only ease of and come back ,he explains it as a stabbing pain
Appendix is located in right lower part of abdomen. As it is removed by keyhole surgery, there will be no complications. As the pain is in the upper part of abdomen under rib cage, his Liver has to be tested. Go for Liver function tests and Ultrasound examination. Till then use skeletal muscle relaxant along with Omeprazole. If you come back with above reports, i will clarify furthering him speedy recoveryRegards
