What could cause constant front lower right side pain?

Appendicitis

Symptoms

The main symptom of appendicitis is belly (abdominal) pain. The pain can feel like indigestion or like you need to have a bowel movement or pass gas. Many people feel the first pain near the belly button. Then it moves to the lower right side of the belly. But the pain can be in different parts of your belly or even on your side. The pain may get worse if you move, walk, or cough. You may also have a fever or feel sick to your stomach.

Many people who have had appendicitis say the pain is hard to describe. It may not feel like any pain you have had before. It may not even be a very bad pain, but you may feel like something is wrong. If you have moderate belly pain that does not go away after 4 hours, call your doctor. If you have severe belly pain, call your doctor right away.

You may have appendicitis if:

* You have pain in your belly. The pain may begin around your belly button.

* The pain in your belly gets stronger and moves below your belly button on your right side (the lower right quadrant). This is the most common place to feel pain when you have appendicitis.

* The pain does not go away and gets worse when you move, walk, or cough.

* You have pain in any part of your belly or on your side.

* You feel nauseated or throw up a few times. You also may not feel like eating.

* You have constipation, back pain, a slight fever, or a swollen abdomen.

Some people do not have the symptoms listed above. Older people, children younger than 2 years, and pregnant women may not have pain in the lower right part of the belly. Other people feel pain in their side because their appendix is in a different position than normal.

Pain in the abdomen is very common.

There are also many conditions with symptoms similar to appendicitis. But because appendicitis can become serious in a short amount of time, call your doctor right away if you have any of the symptoms listed above. Treatment is much easier if the appendix has not ruptured. In most people, the appendix does not rupture until they have felt sick for at least 24 hours. http://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/appendicitis-symptoms

Can marijuana fix back pain?

Oh i can tell you with out a doubt it does. I have broken my back in 3 places 3 times over the past 10 years and I'm also a fibromiligia suffer so i know all to well what pain is like " there's a few more things wrong with me but hell I'm not going to attempt to spell them ;-) "

I use to smoke it for the pain and the trick is little and often, if you have smoked it before then think of what you would put normally into a join then take 3/4's of it out and only smoke the 1/4 " yes i know this sounds strange but believe me it works " your aim here is not to get stoned " hay i might be wrong lol " but to relive your pain, so smoke that joint and get another one ready to go.

The first one wont do much for you but it will get the good stuff in to your system. if it takes the edge off the pain then all is good, if it don't then don't worry just have another joint, remember to roll them with as little weed as you can get away with.

Keep doing this until the desired amount of pain relive is achived, then it's just a matter of topping your self up as and when needed.

I hope this helps, i know what it's like. Hope you get it sorted.

Unfortunately, marijuana is illegal.

What could cause back pain and cramps in the thighs and stomach and your period to be over a week late if you are not pregnant?

In some ways a belated period is much like being 6 or more months pregnant and can cause back pain. We are literally bloated inside until we start our periods. Stress is a big factor in late periods, so I wouldn't worry about it right now. If you are 38 or over have a check-up by your doctor as you could be going into peri menopause. If you are on the birth control pill this could be a factor as well. Nerves are all over your body, so when you are bloated inside the pressure will usually cause cramping (nerves) in the upper legs. When you go for your next internal/physical tell the doctor about this and he can explain it much better than I can. Don't worry sounds like you are just fine. Marcy

What causes lower back pains dizziness and weak?

It depends on if the back pain and the other symptoms are related.

A "pinched nerve" would cause all of those.

There are various ways to determine if they are isolated or acting in relation to each other, there are also ways of diffusing each one, separately or together.

Dizziness when of spinal origin, is usually higher in the spine that lower.

Weakness can come anything nerve conduction is impeded/pinched.

Things like your age, your history, any injuries and body type are all important factors,

none of which I could know from just your question.

Hope this helps. Good Luck.

Lower left back pain and left knee pain?

Some people think that just like other problems, one should also rest or lie down if he is suffering from back pain. In reality, one should move the pain area as much as possible. Moving the pain area helps in getting rid of this problem but it also does not mean to move it for a long period of time. Neither too much rest, nor too much movement is good for lower back pain, left side.

Do blondes have a lower pain tolerance?

No. Blondes are sooo stupid that they are probably so used to pain because they keep tripping over air, so they don't feel it as much over time. Although some blondes will think they are bleeding to death when they get a papercut, or they think they broke their foot when they stub their toe. I guess it all depends on how dumb the blonde is.
