lower right abdominal pain

For the past week or so I have had a dull pain in the lower right abdominal area that comes and goes. I've also been pretty bloated also. Maybe even a little sick to my stomach here and there. It's not constipation because i have no problem going to the restroom. Anyone have any ideas?

Lower right abdomen pain often means appendicitis, and since that can become rather serious quickly, you should visit a doc as soon as you can.  If you notice the pain is becoming very bad, go straight to the ER, don't hesitate.  Now, that kind of pain can mean a few other things going on in your body that needs checking out, again a good reason to have a doc check you out, becuz some are serious or can become serious.  They can do a few fairly easy tests to narrow down what's going on, like an ultrasound.  But pain and bloating in the abdomen are signs of various problems, some can get a lot worse, so you must see a doc.  Me telling you the options won't help at all, so do let a doc check you out.

Hi there:

Just curious to know how you are doing now.  There are so many things that could be causing your symptoms.  Search for diffuse abdominal pain images.  There should be a bunch of pictures that pop up, dividing the stomach into four quadrants.  From there, you'll see several conditions under each quadrant that might be causing your trouble.  If you can, keep a log of everything entering and leaving your body including medication.  This will help to identify any issues with diet and bowel movements.  

Hang in there and all the best,

Sam
