Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Some part of appendicitis cases can be treated with antibiotic. So even if the pain is better or gone, this does not rule appendicitis out. It could be it and had gotten cured with antibiotic. It may also recur.
If the pain is still present (I assume this is lower right abdominal pain), she should consult gynecologist. Ovarian torsion, cyst or inflammation can give a pain in such location.
Urine analysis and pregnancy test should be also done.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
