What Causes Abdominal Pain After Appendix Surgery?

My daughter 15 years of age has undergone an appendix surgery on 31/09/2011, Till date (12/09/2011) she is complaining of pain in right lower abdomen which goes right lower back and then spreads to right leg. Fever of 100 to 101. Vomiting at the time of eating. I contacted the concerned surgeon but he does not find any unusual. Her stool and urine are normal. Can u guess what may be the cause ?

Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

If I were your doctor, I would have advised her routine/microscopic and culture sensitivity test and an ultrasound abdomen for your daughter.The fever could be due to a silent asymptomatic UTI (urinary tract infection). As she is not married, we possibly could rule out a PID (Pelvic inflammatory disease). Further management would depend on the investigation reports.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
