Appendicitis?

I've have been feeling constipated but don't have a fever or vomiting... but feeling bloated and now kidneys are burning... i did feel a pop.
Answer:
Beleive me, if your appendix popped you would be in excruciating pain/dead. Once it pops, it hurts, and can cause major damage. You may have a bladder, or kidney infection. Cranberry Juice, or Cranberry pills can help clear this up. Although, i would say it would be best to see a doctor ASAP. If you begin getting bad pain, vomiting, or a fever, i would say get to the emergency room. If you are feeling constipated try milk of magnesia, or prune juice. You also may want to try normal milk (always goes right through me) or mineral oil. If you are VERY constipated, then Magnesium Citrate is an option, that will clear you RIGHT out
NO APPENDICITIIS!! possibly a kidney stone stuck in your uretur.Check to see if you are tender halfway between your belly button and your rt pelvic bone, that is McBurney's point where your appendix is, it will be very sore if you have it!Nate RDMS
If you had appendicitis, the pain would be almost unbearable. Constipation can make you feel miserable. I would suggest prune juice, milk of magnesia, or some other laxative. If you don't have success, call your doctor. You might become impacted, and that's not fun at all.
Unless you are feeling very intense, sharp, stabbing pain in your lower right abdomen then its probably not appendicitis. If your appendix was to burst, as mine did, you would know immediately that something was REALLY wrong. You would almost immediately get a high fever and vomitting along with an overwhelming feeling that you were very ill. I doubt that there is a "pop" involved.
If you are in pain go to the E.R., but it doesnt sound like appendicitis!
it is common for people with appendicitis to experience "rebound pain." Push in where you appendix is (lower right abdominal, horizontal to the navel and under the nipple). You should experience little or no pain. Then let go. If youre screaming in pain, its appendicitis.
It does sound like you're constipated and you might have urine infection or a stone (although stones are unusual at a young age and if you are normal weight for your height). Go and see your doctor and take a urine sample with you. They can dip the urine and check for infection then and there. They will also give you talored advise for constipation. You do need to see a doctor as if a urine infection continues too long, you can damage your kidneys. That's not pretty.No. 1 cause of constipation: lack of fluid
No. 2 cause of constipation: lack of exerciseNurse Emma
You are dehydrated. Drink a bunch of WATER.
