Suggest Treatment For Right Sided Pain After Appendectomy

Hi , 40 years old, I have right sided upper quadrant discomfort. Almost like someone is gnawing at my side but not real pain. Just something that seems very different than the ordinary. I have clay colored looser stool that is a little different than my ordinary stool. I am gluten free 98% of the time because that has cured my irritable bowel symptoms. Nothing else is new except I had been fighting a sore throat/dry cough for 2 weeks, saw the MD whom thought it was a virus and I continue taking honey, lemon and vitamin to help myself get better, the sore throat seems to be improving slowly along with the cough has gone. This right sided gnawing pain is the thing I am perplexed about: I have had a cholecystectomy, a appendectomy, a ovarian cyst repair and the feeling feels nothing like any of these issues when they arised.

Hello,

That is quite a distance from the appendix.cannot say in your particular case, but generally, that would be more with a lung or liver problem. Oh, or a problem AFTER a gall bladder removal like scar or bile blockage. an ultrasound would show most problems.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
