Does this sound like Appendicitis???? PLEASE HELP?
My lower right intestine area (where my appendix is) has a dull ache when I cough, or push on the toilet. Ive had this for 2 days now. Also, my poop is thinner. Have you had appendicitis?

Appendicitis usually starts out with central stomach pain, and over about 12 hours, will drop down to the lower right. Usually, you have about 36 hour from the onset of pain, to the appendix rupturing, at which point a fatal infection can set in, before you get any symptoms of it.
Get yourself to the emergency room immediately! Appendicitis is not something you want to take any risks with.

This may sound strange, but if you try to do jumping jacks and it is too painful or you can't do them at all, then you're probably suffering from appendicitis. We use this method along with other tests to see if the patient does in fact have appendicitis. In my experience, it is 99.9% effective in determining whether or not you have that or not, but if the pain gets worse, then go to the ER to get everything checked out. If this is appendicitis and it goes untreated, then it could potentially become life threatening very quickly. Hope this helps and good luck!!
