Abdominal pain with painful urination after appendicitis surgery?

Question
Hello doctor,
3 weeks ago, I had an appendectomy without pain, but today it started to hurt again, sometimes above the navel, sometimes below the navel, painful urination. So tell me, is it okay to have abdominal pain with painful urination after appendectomy? I thank you.

Hello,
With the question “What's wrong with abdominal pain with painful urination after appendectomy? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
After appendectomy (now mostly laparoscopic surgery) there may be symptoms of abdominal pain related to intestinal adhesions, especially in the right iliac fossa, or there is an accumulation of fluid in the abdomen (if the appendix is ​​inflamed late, there is migration of pus in the abdomen). The symptoms you describe can be found in many diseases and disorders of the digestive system (colitis, enteritis,...) So you should have a follow-up examination (preferably with a surgeon) for specific advice. .
If you still have questions about abdominal pain with painful urination, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
