these symptoms are suggesting that you have acute appendicitis(inflammation of the Appendix, a vestigial organ in right side of abdomen). diagnosis can be confirmed by temperature monitoring, complete blood count and ultrasound scan of abdomen. surgical removal of the affected appendix is the best option to get rid of it permanently.open surgery and laproscopy based surgery are the options depending on your doctor's judgement. by the way laproscopy is better option. till surgery is done pain killers, antibiotics, intravenous line need to be started.

post operation management
nil oral for few days
rest for a week
antibiotics and pain killers
suture removal after one week if any
