Scared I have appendicitis

Had a sharp pain in my lower right abdomen for two months now, had an ultrasound, bloods and urine test all seem normal so doctors from A&E sent me home. It really hurts when I press the area though during the ultrasound I was shown there is a big build up of gas in my colon could that be causing the sharp pain when pressed? Thanks

Yep.

Gas in the intestine causes pain for some people. When it collects on the left side of the colon, the pain can be confused with heart disease. When it collects on the right side of the colon, the pain may feel like the pain associated with gallstones or appendicitis.
