Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
good afternoon, I have been having sharp pain in my lower abdomen on the right side between my naval but closer to the hip bone. it hurts mostly when I stand up but then dulls as I continue standing or walking. the pain is also very close to my C-section scar (20 months ago). Can you possibly advise as to what it may be? thank you Anna M
c section scar 20 moths ago should not be causing the problem. if it has caused any infection then u find local signs and in your case local signs are absent . the area mentioned by you specifically gives a suspicion of appendicitis u need to do following ultrasound whole abdomen to rule out appendicitis pan 40 tab once daily in morning before breakfast for5 days. tab voveron r 100 SOS when there is pain. tab cefixime 200 mg twice daily for 5 days to prevent infection . avoid oily and junk foods . take fruits,vegetables and frit juice in diets.
