Three weeks of persistent right-sided abdominal pain, especially with stabbing/burning pain, needs an in-person medical evaluation.
A normal ultrasound is reassuring, but it does not exclude every cause of abdominal pain.
Please avoid prolonged fasting and have regular, smaller meals throughout the day.
For now, avoid very spicy, oily and gas-producing foods, alcohol and excessive caffeine.
Maintain good hydration and observe whether specific foods trigger the pain.
Do not repeatedly self-medicate with painkillers, particularly NSAIDs, without medical advice.
Depending on examination findings, your doctor may consider blood tests, urine testing and further imaging if required.
Because the pain is predominantly on the right side, causes involving the bowel, appendix, urinary tract, abdominal wall or pelvic organs may need consideration.
Seek urgent care if severe pain returns, or if you develop fever, vomiting, abdominal swelling, blood in stool/urine, fainting or inability to eat.
Since the pain has persisted for 3 weeks and was previously severe enough to affect walking, please arrange a clinical consultation rather than treating it as gas alone.
