Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Pain in abdomen which has shifted to the right side, hurting all the time, associated with fever and vomiting has the biggest suspicion of appendicitis or right ovaian problem or tubal problem.
If the ultrasonography is normal , it is always better to get the confirmation by CT scan of the abdomen.
In the meantime see a Doctor , preferable a surgeon for clinical evaluation and diagnosis.
Get started with antibiotics and symptomatic treatment.
Follow the advise as decided by CT scan .
If the CT scan is also normal, this is a form of gastroenteritis and will settle with antibiotics and supportive treatment.
