Watched a movie in the theater last night, walked out, everything was fine. Drove home, ~30 miles, and when I get out of the car my left side, at about the bottom of the rib cage, hurts like a motherfucker. I slept (this was about 24 hours ago), and when I woke up (couple hours ago) it feels a bit better but still hurts.

I don't have the money to go to the ER. What do you think? Anybody have ideas?

Palpate your left chest and abdomen. Is it softer or harder anywhere compared to you right side?

Okay, I'll try. TC, push down on your rib case and stomach. Is it harder than usual anywhere?

Appendix is on the right side, otherwise that would've been my guess too.

Describe the pain, tc. Sharp, kick-in-balls gaseous, sensitive bruise?

you need to go in to the ER

pain like this can be serious

it could just be gas considering popcorn has a lot of cheese.

if i had to guess if the pain is severe it's an appendicitis which is actually a severe issue

Chest pains I've had:

Gas, for me is sharp and generally improved only once gas is expelled. Generally on the left side.

Muscular strain, only feels better when I don't move, sorta easy to trace back to your innercostals(muscles between ribs). Also sharp, but generally sorta warm.

Does the pain worsen with movement or improve when not moving?

Are you experiencing any digestive issues?

I highly doubt dude is posting on GameFAQs with appendicitis. That shit floors people... Especially if it's powerful enough to be felt on the left side when the organ is in the right lower quadrant.

When did the pain begin

what causes the pain. is it movement? does it get worse with movement? it is just persistent

what is the type of pain. dull, sharp?

how would you rate the pain out of 10?

how long have you been experiencing the pain?

No, both sides seem the same.

More like a bruise. Doesn't hurt all the time, just when I move around.

Didn't eat any popcorn and the appendix is on the right.

Walked out of theater, felt fine. Drove home, got out of car, it hurt.

Movement, mostly. If I'm still it doesn't hurt.

Dull.

Probably a 3. Maybe 4.

A little over 24 hours.

I've eaten and passed gas since it happened. Neither made it better or worse. I haven't pooped, though. It does improve when not moving.

That sounds a lot like gas. Just lay on your left side for as long as you need to.
