What Are The Symptoms Of Appendicitis?

Hello Doc I am having a slight pain on my right side in between my hip and armpit. I ve been looking at possible symptoms like appendicitis and I am very unsure because I don t have any of the symptoms besides the slight pain. It feels somewhat tender in the area but no big pain when pushed?

Hi the pain is midway between the hip and the armpit, meaning in the right hypochondriac region.
This is a site more common for problems of gall bladder, liver, kidney , colon and pancreas.
CT scan will help the best and if colonic problem is suspected also go for colonoscopy ,
