Today at school I realised I had this icredibly bad pain just below my ribs on the right hand side of my abdomen. It is worst when standing up. It hurts even more When I take a breath in. After spending the day in Sick Bay the nurse suggested that I should get a stomach X-Ray if the pain doesn't get better or go to the emergency room. The pain is still very bad if not worse. I can't walk without it hurting. I have also lost my appetite. On sunday I had blood in my stool - I dont know if this is related.
Should I go to the emergency room??
EXTRA DETAILS:
The pain is almost worse then appendicitis ( I have had mine out)
Is the pain anywhere near my lungs? Could it be internal bleeding??
Please help me should I go to ER?? Is it that serious??
Thanks and please REPLY ASAP. Sorry for the caps :(

It could be caused by a number of issues. 1. The on set of IBS 2. Anal sex and tearing of the skin 3. A hemorrhoid acting up 4. Benign polyps (growths) in the bowel 5. Duodenal ulcers 6. Mekel's diverticulum (a congenital pouch on the small intestine) 7. Colitis (an inflammation of the large intestine) 8. Diverticulosis (a condition where the wall of the large intestine develops "Mickey Mouse" ears.) Having seen too many advanced colon cancers, I support a more aggressive approach in searching for the cancers at an earlier stage. If a person has a parent or sibling who has had a colon or rectal cancer, he should have a colonoscopy at age 50. After the age of 30, if a person notices blood in the stool or on the paper, everything must be done to discover the source of the bleeding and to exclude a possible cancer. This means a colonoscopy for a complete evaluation. At your next physical exam, ask your physician to check your colon carefully. If you have noticed blood in your stools, call your doctor today.

I've had Hemorrhoids for nearly 40 years now. I use to suffer badly from moderate chronic Hemorrhoids combined with unbearable swelling and bleeding. As with numerous other Hemorrhoids sufferers, I've been fold to "accept and live with it" In searching the internet about Hemorrhoids, I found this very good remedy: https://tr.im/HemorrhoidNoMoreOfficial
Note that:
Diarrhea can contribute to hemorrhoid formation because the bowel undergoes pressure strains due to the condition. Undue pressure on the veins that make up internal hemorrhoidal structures can worsen existing damage. Internal hemorrhoids are not visible, unless they proplapse (protrude) from the anus, either constantly or during a bowel movement. If this is the case, then you have a grade III or IV internal hemorrhoid. If the protrusion is on the anal verge or the area surrounding the anus, then its likely an external hemorrhoid. Reducing pressure from issues of diarrhea and constipation will help. Not straining during a bowel movement, not lifting heavy objects, not sitting for extended periods, all will help.

Definitly go to the ER. It kind of sounds like it could be a gastro intestinal disease. They'll hopefully do some tests for that there. Just try to stay as calm as posible (I know it's not that easy). Overstressing will probably just make things worse. I'd definitly bring a family member or a good friend with you to the hospital. They'll be there to keep you company, give you support, and help you out should you need it.

The most common causes of hemorrhoids are straining during bowel movements and obesity. Follow these essential hemorrhoid prevention tips and you may not even have to delve into any hemorrhoid treatments https://tr.im/uZEHj
If you’re straining during bowel movements, there is no doubt that you are suffering from constipation, and obesity only heightens your chance of experiencing these digestive issues. The best solution for hemorrhoids is to not have them at all!

These are significant symptoms. Yes, go to the Emergency Room. Bring a book. You have asked multiple times. It does sound urgent. Go. At the very least it will ease your mind so you can get some rest.
