Havent you been checked for hernias?

I had a pain in my lower abdomen on the right, also pain in right testicle and sometimes right leg, with pain in my back. Was worried with the pain in testicle more than anything so was referred to hosptial by my doctor. He checked my testicle and nothing was there. He then went to my lower ab and told me to cough, he saw an hernia pop out each side of my lower abs. This is my problem and now waiting for Dec for a pre op appointment.

Before I was referred my doc checked for hernias and said I definatly didnt have any. Luckily the guy at the hospital just browsed around my lower ab or I would have been none the wiser. Always best to get a second opinion. Especially if you're in England, UK. I'm not the greatest admirer of our doctors. Not in my area anyway. They just want you out the room before you even sit down.

if its the lower right then u might have something wrong with your appendix. you might have appendicitis. other symptoms included constipation, loss of apitite, back pains, vomiting or nasuea. also, the pain must worsen

I had the same crazy pain in the upper abdomen that spread up to my neck, and across my chest, and felt like it was going right through to my spine. I would hold my breath for as long as possible because it hurt to breathe or move or think.

It took 2 weeks of ER visits (every day literally). I couldn't even have water to drink and i would have an attack. So not eating in 2 weeks, wasnot a good sign either.

When they finally got the tests for my gallbladder theyneeded to verify thats what was wrong i had already gone toxic, i had emergency surgery, as well as that crazy one where they have to put a scope down my thoat and thread it to the opening of my small intestine to get the stones that had literally blocked my small intestine!!!

There were other complications after the fact as well because i had two surgeries that required anestetic (sorry about the spelling) which is also not good for you, and made my right lung collapse! crazy i know hey.

Well most of you seem to be women, me being a guy with no ovaries have been getting insane SUPER sharp pains like non other! in my right side (the area between the ribs and belt line) every thing is fine just minding your own business and them bam! you get stopped in your tracks. your just hanging on for dear life just hoping to make it out alive! the first time i had ever gone threw it was three days ago. just hit me out of no where... did not know what to do then finally it went away. I said i hoped to never go threw that ever again! then two days later everything fine and wham! again, sever sharp pain like non other. It is so intense, i brake bones, i get bad cuts at work, but this pain sucks. when it gets going real good it will seem so shoot pain out in other directions. : (

I have this exact same thing. Mine is an ovarian cyst. Mostly the cyst moves around sometimes and pushes on stuff around it and sends sharp pain though my lower ab and back area. This is what you're probably experiencing, but to be sure you should probably go to a doctor so that they can do an ultra scan. Hope this helps!

I would say with almost 100% certainty that it's ovarian cysts related. At worst it's endometriosis. Neither of which are serious, and birth control will help.

It is not necessarily the gall bladder because mine is gone and I have these same pains. I had a friend co-worker who experienced severe pains and they bacame constant, he was flown to Dubai where they did surgery. He had a abdominal aneurysm and nearly died. Dont take advise here in this case. Go to the DR.

It sounds to me like PID. I've had it, the doctor told me it was PID and I could have died if I didn't fix the problem sooner.

Seems the lower right side of the abdomen is easily torn resulting in severe sharp pains. Have any of you been running or exercising hard lately? I started running on a treadmill to lose weight... a week into it the pains started in the lower right abdomen.  I went to the doctor and spent over $1000 for all the test etc... diagnostic outcome... all that jerking around will cause small tears in the lining of your stomach and walls... then you will get the shooting pains. Running should be done at a pace that does not involve lots of pounding... jump roping will do the same they said. Your stomach and abdomen will get stronger in time... so this wont happen...you just have to start out slow!

When I was younger I had a gall bladder attack. It was brought on by eating very fatty foods one day... The attack was a result of a stone trying to pass...The pain started in my front, right abdomen and then spread to my back.. It was all over... Felt like a knife in my side... The ER said it was indigestion and gave me pepcid, sent me home. I then started to have a fever, for 5 days straight and it got worse. Went back to my physician and she suspected it was the gallbladder and gave me an ultrasound. Ended up, my gallbladder was 50% full of stones (that's a lot) at 19 yrs of age. Got it removed. This is also hereditary. My uncle had his removed. After me, my 4 sisters have all been diagnosed and have had theirs removed.

It could be gallstones if you have pain on your back and in the abdomin area. My doctor ran alot of tests on me but I have been having similar pains and was told it was ovulation. I was also diagnosed with blodd clts in the same area so it culd also be that. It should be checked out asap.

I just got back from the Hospital after having my sister in more pain then I had ever seen her have before. I rush out of the house when she told me it was sharp  excruciating pain that shot around her front right abdomen and persisted in her right back abdominal area ( or near kidneys). I thought she was getting a swollen appendix and that she was gonna die if it ruptured (I watch too much "house"). After some morphine to reduce the pain, they got her an ultra sound and found it was kidney stones.  It hurt more when she put pressure on the area, or flexed muscles that contract that area like doing a "right leg raise". There are a number of things It can be for you people, but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of you people posting here have stones that need to be removed. Hope this helps anyone who is going through this terrible situation.

it would be called Endometriosis most likely thats what i have and it is VERY painful, but can go undetected until a laprocopy* is done. Some doctors turned me away claiming it was all in my head until i had that procedure done..so if it continues done give up

I realize these posts were made over a year ago, however I would like to reply to those who may be reading this and thinking that these pains in the lower abdomen are because of their gallbladder. I am having these same pains and I am not sure what they are either. I do know though that it has NOTHING to do with my gallbladder because I do NOT have one. Mine was removed years ago. So to whomever keeps saying it is the gallbladder, I hope you never actually experience gallbladder pain. Gallbladder pain is in the top of your abdomen where it starts hurting and moves around to your back and will start hurting in your chest. It feels like your body is being squeezed by vice grips. For me it started out feeling sort of like heartburn and progressed to the serious 'curl up in the fetal position' pain later. It is not a sharp stabbing pain in the lower abdomen.
