On the neck | Pain on the right side of the body

On the neck

In the case of neck pain, one must first determine whether the underlying cause is more orthopedic (bones, ligaments, joints, muscles, etc. are affected) or internal (organ disease). A sore throat can be caused by a cold, for example.

In this case, the throat is irritated and redness occurs in the area. Possibly the tonsils are also affected, this is particularly often manifested by pain when swallowing. In addition, the lymph nodes in the neck can swell up painfully in the event of a cold or other infection (caused by bacteria or viruses).

The lymph nodes form nodes in the immune system, the body’s own defense system against pathogens. If the neck is affected (although this is usually referred to as neck pain rather than sore throat), the problem is usually more on the orthopedic side. Bad posture in the back and neck is the most common cause.

They lead to tension in the muscles, which in turn cause pain. In this case, one should not forget to clarify a herniated disc in the area of the spine. Whiplash injuries, such as those that occur in a rear-end collision, can also cause neck pain.

In the belly

On the right side of the upper abdomen, problems in the liver or gall bladder usually cause pain. The liver usually causes pain only when there is an increase in volume due to various diseases (inflammation of the liver, fatty liver, alcoholic liver). This stretches the protective capsule, which usually causes pain to the person affected.

Gall bladder complaints are usually characterized by colicky pain. They occur mainly when the bile ducts or the gall bladder itself is inflamed. This can be triggered, for example, by a bile stasis due to gallstones.

The stomach is also located in the upper abdomen, although it is more in a central position. Nevertheless, in various cases, stomach pain can develop particularly on the right side of the body. Possible causes of stomach pain include spoiled food or a gastrointestinal infection.

An inflammation of the mucous membrane of the stomach (gastritis) can also be a trigger. Stomach pain also occurs when the person concerned suffers from an ulcer (injury to the stomach lining caused by e.g. bacteria, or chemical substances). The pain is usually caused by the fact that the particularly aggressive stomach acid reaches unprotected areas of the stomach wall.

In the case of pain on the right side of the lower abdomen, it must first be clarified whether it is appendicitis.What is colloquially called appendix is actually only the so-called appendix, which ends in a dead end from the appendix. Normally it does not cause us any problems. However, it can happen that the entrance and exit of this appendix is blocked.

Then the area behind it becomes inflamed. This leads to severe pain in the area of the right lower abdomen. Normally, the disease is also accompanied by increased muscle tension in the right lower abdomen.

An appendicitis is an acutely dangerous situation and must be treated by surgical removal of the appendix. However, other structures on the right side of the lower abdomen may also be affected. At about the same place where the appendix is located, the small intestine merges with the large intestine.

People who suffer from a chronic inflammatory bowel disease often have a lot of problems at this point. However, other structures on the right side of the lower abdomen can also be affected. At about the same place where the appendix is located, the small intestine merges into the large intestine. People who suffer from a chronic inflammatory bowel disease often have many problems at this point.
