Sharp stabbing pelvic pain???!
Question:
Sharp stabbing pelvic pain???
Earlier this week I had a moment where I had to lie down because my lower abdomen (right below my belly button down) started feeling like it was being stabbed. It was really sharp pain that was really intense but only lasted for a minute. I chalked it up to a weird fluke or muscle spasm but today it happened again but for 5 minutes. I am going to make an appointment tomorrow when my doctors office opens but am a little worried. Does anyone have any ideas as to what to expect??? Thanks for your help.
Answers:
the appendix is located in the right lower quadrant of abdomen.
but also gas can feel the same way, good idea to keep the doctor's appointment. if the pain intensifies, continues to come and go, and if you have a fever, these are all good reasons to go to the E.R.
