The first symptoms of appendicitis are usually pain and fever around the abdomen. However, with appendicitis, usually the pain goes down from one side to the other and can eventually get worse to the right side of your abdomen.
If your child has abdominal pain, look for the following signs of appendicitis: abdominal or lower right pain (or both), severe pain or tenderness in the waist, and / or pain or tenderness in the pelvic area. Also, the pain can start and go away after a couple of hours, but can actually last from a few days to weeks. If your child does have a stomach ache, check for nausea.
Usually, the pain and swelling in the waist area is caused by food poisoning. But sometimes this pain can be caused by something else. For example, a ruptured colon can cause abdominal pain that lasts for several days. And pelvic pain can also be caused by a kidney infection, ovarian cyst, or some type of cancer.

If the spots are yellow or red, they are probably caused by inflammation, and anti-inflammatory drugs or even pain relievers are the best treatments. if your child has any type of stomach cancer or tumor.

Finally, if your child's abdominal pain does not go away in a few hours, you should get your doctor to take a swab sample of their blood for a test called a CT scan. In this test, it will help the doctors know exactly where the pain is coming from so he can provide you with the proper treatment.
