pain in right abdomen

[berry001]

I have been having a vague pain in my right abdomen to the right of the navel and sometimes a little bit to the right and below the navel the pain is sometimes like a pinching feeling ... along with the pain yesterday the 4th of october. I was feeling lightheaded most of the day. I have also lost at least 10 lbs. If not more unintentionally in the last month or two.  .. What could this be ?

Hi there,
I hope you come to some answers soon!  It could absolutely be that you're having a flare up of your crohn's.  Have you been diagnosed with it in your ileum?  That would indicate some right abdomen pain for sure!  You could also have something totally unrelated like a cyst.  But I would absolutely see your gastro. about it.  If it IS a flare up, you don't want to wait until it gets unbearable.  Remember, most crohn's flares can be treated without too much aggression if treated quick. :)  Best of luck!

Hi,

You need to go see a doctor.  This could be something like appendicitis, or it could be something else.  The fact that you have lost so much weight also means that you need to see a doctor and get to the bottom of this.
