What Causes Right Sided Abdominal Pain?
Hi my name is Edith, I had a sharp pain in my right side of my abdomen last night, the pain was so big I can not sleep all night. I am reading the symptoms of appendix. the pain doesn t repeated, nor fever or nausea occured, just sensible, and I do not know how to do cooking and baking today. I am aware that I may need to go to the Emergency if the pain getting worst, currently, I am not sure this is related to appendix, or not.

Hello,
Sharp pain on right side abdomen could be due to appendicitis or salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease in women. I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment, relevant investigations - like ultrasound, diagnosis and thus management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
