Answer 1

Do you still have your appendix?  If the pain continues you need to get checked at the ER.

Answer 2

Depends on how low.  It could be an ovarian cyst, or if it is higher, it could be your appendix or possibly gas.  If the pain persists or worsens consult a physician.  The appendix can become infected leading to severe illness.  The fluid from ovarian cysts is harmless, it is acidic so it irritates the area if it ruptures.  And gas, well....if you let one rip and you don't feel better, then you can rule that one out.  Best of luck, hope you feel better soon!!!

Answer 3

appendicitis only happens on the right lower side. Thats why everyone agrees thats what you have. If you do not get help it can burst which is ten times worse. You should probably go to the er if it gets worse as it is a holiday weekend and clinics will not be open on monday.

Answer 4

It could just be ligament pain but, if you are nauseous and are running a fever then you do need to go to the ER and get checked out for appendicitis. If you feel like this tomorrow please go ASAP. If you start throwing up then go tonight!

Answer 5

possibility of appendicitis
