Abdominal pain in this area is usually acute, and can be spontaneous or chronic. It can be a dull or sharp, localized or diffuse. Accompanying symptoms include nausea and vomiting, tenderness, constipation, diarrhea, loss of appetite, bloating and gas, and fever.
There are many structures in the lower right abdominal region in which pain can originate. The internal structures in this area include parts of the large intestine called the cecum, the appendix, and ascending colon, portions of the small intestine, the right ovary and the fallopian tube, and the right ureter. Any abnormality or disturbance of one or more of these structures can cause pain in the lower right abdomen.
