[|Human|] im 18 years old and have a sharp pain in my right abdomen, just in from my hip bone. it started a week ago and seems to be getting worse . the only time when the pain isnt that bad is when im lying down flat , also have been vomiting quite a lot what could this be ?
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your specific query, although you would have provided information about associated fever, bowel habit change any urinary complaints. The commonest cause can definitely be appendicitis or nephritis (inflammation of the cecal part of colon on right side where the small intestine and appendix are connected). I would advise you the following:Get a check-up done by a Surgeon, *Routine blood investigations like Complete blood picture, blood sugar, urea, creatinine, liver function tests, thyroid function tests.*Urine -routine and microscopy*Stool: routine, microscopy, occult blood, culture and sensitivity.*Ultrasonography of abdomen, *Colonoscopy if the medical treatment fails to relieve you. Get the surgery done if it is appendicitis.
