I’m 18 years old. About 2 weeks ago, I woke up and I was bleeding very heavy and it was clumpy too. I had severe pain in my right abdonminal and right back pain. My period usually is at the end of the month, also. The bleeding stoped three days after the incident. Now, I am bleeding again. This morning I had hot flashes, then puked, then started bleeding out of my vagina, now I have right adonminal pain, lower right back pain, and bloating. Not sure if I should go to the doctors if its nothing serious… Oh, and I have been constipated the past 2 days too, and tired all the time.

I have lower rhq discomfort whenever I exercise which can move to the groin area. It all started with a little blood on the tissue paper that disappeared on its own. Several months later, I had a cramp and hfm disease before a week of diarrhea and bloating (took antibiotics and ppis to deal with it). Some days I will feel completely fine and okay. This had been going on since July/August. I have no idea what’s wrong with me but hoping it is not too serious.

I have had RLQ pain on occasion but it hasn’t felt like this… the pain is different and it usually doesn’t persist like this. It woke me up early this morning, I was even dreaming about the pain. It really feels like I am being sliced on a superior to inferior plane (head to toe direction top to bottom). The pain is worst below the belly button, and then between the groin and midline region. So the worst pain is just below the belly button line and to the right. The pain begins just above the belly button and is at it’s worst at that specific localized spot below the belly button line and between the groin and midline. The pain continues down into my groin and halfway down my thigh. I do not have a fever. I do not have tingling or numbness. I had a normal BM this morning. I have not been tooting though I usually toot all day long. I am burping a lot and I never burp. I am 29. I have a “heart shaped uterus” it is not bicornuate. I had an ectopic pregnancy 6 years ago. I am on the nuvaring and started must rating a few days ago when I took it out. My BP is about 20 point higher than normal about 132/92… I weigh 164lbs and am 5’7″. The pain worsens when I breathe in. When the pain started it was only in the RLQ and has since spread upward and down into the thigh. There is some rigidity of the abdomen on the right, no knots or bulging or anything else remarkable with palpation

In reply to Teala. Hi Teala. Many conditions can present in this manner. Gallstones is one possible cause although you should have noticed symptoms after eating. Pancreatitis and appendicitis may cause these symptoms as well as do many other conditions. You should consult with your doctor who can then run further tests before reaching a diagnosis.

I have been having sharp burning pains on my RLQ. It comes and goes. Not sure what that means.

Hey everyone
This morning as I was taking a shower I started to develop light pain in my lower left abdominal area. I thought nothing of it until minutes later it developed into full lower abdominal pain, right sided back pain, and pain that wraps around my navel. Soon after that I began vomiting a lot and developed a low grade fever. Also my last bowel movement was recent. Any ideas ?

In reply to Jess. Hi Jess, I have the same pain, I had a hernia repair in October and think it has reoccurred. My symptoms now are same as yours. Do you find if you press in on that area it makes the pain go away? I had hernia repair on the left side and that healed well. But not the right. I'm 53 and exercised regularly. I care for 5 elderly adults in my home and transferred them a lot over my 30 plus years in nursing. I see my surgeon next week. But have you thought you my have a hernia. When they fixed the hernia they did remove a cyst on the right ovary. Read up on it and see if it applies to you, but we have the same symptoms. Hope you feel better.

In reply to Sinda Willis. Hi Sinda. It's possible but I would think that a second opinion may be a good idea. It will help put your mind at ease if indeed there is no problem.

In reply to HealthHype. Thank you for the great advice. I did talk to my surgeon and she told me it is "phantom pain" and I will have pain for the next four years. Does this seem right? I am lost and am thinking about a second opinion.
