Do I have an appendix problem?


Question:
I have been having major pains in my right lower abdomin. At first when they started occuring, I thought they were mentrual cramps, but then they started occuring more often. When it happens, I just buckle down, and then It feels like someone has stuck a knife in my side when I try to straighten back up. Are those any symptoms? ... and what causes appendix problems?

Answers:
Maybe this will be of some help.

i had the same prob. but it was a large cyst on my ovary you might want to get it check out they can give you stuff to make it better :)
Go see a doctor--I was pregnant when I had pains very similar to ones you are describing and they removed mine. It is definately something you don't want to wait around for--If it bursts, you could be in alot of trouble.
I don't exactly know waht causes these problems, but I know it is no uncommon.
A doctor would most likely be able to run some tests and find out for you right away. If tests are run and it turns out to be nothing, then at least you know and don't have to worry about it. It could also be something else, so again, find out before it causes you any more pain--I feel for you! Good luck!
Go to the ER immediatly this sounds textbook case, if you want to know what causes this email me after you get back from the ER. I'd be more than happy to tell you. If this sucker bursts it goes from a 15min outpatient surgery to a 3-month ordeal with a possibility of death. drjrumley@yahoo.com is email when you get back.
have you been pooping lately. eat more salads daily
does it hurt in your back? it could be a kidney stone if its longer then a day? it is probably not ur apendix because if it ruptured you would not be alive after a day you have to get it removed asap i sugjest you go to the doctor he can give medicinde to make the pain subside.
I had similar symptoms and it turns out it was gas. the pain lasted for two days and I went to the doctor. He checked me by laying me down flat and bringing one leg at a time, bringing my knee to my face while leaving the other leg down. He said if I can do this and not be in pain then it is not your appendix. Do both sides and see. Hope you're alright!!
