Anything that has the potential to burst inside you, cyst, or otherwise has the potential to cause peritonitis, which can kill you. I had severe pains in my left side and thought it was a reaction to antibiotics I had taken two hours before. The pain stopped, but 2 days later, somebody up above caused me to think twice and go to the emergency room to make sure all it was, was a bad drug reaction. Turned out I had a perforated bowel, and could have died had peritonitis developed. Don’t play around with your insides.

I spent 1 1/2 weeks in the hospital because of a ruptured appendix and peritonitis. Could have died. Still have the huge scar to this day. I was so infected they put me in isolation and didn’t close the wound. Just packed it and waited for it to close on its own. She needs to get herself to a hospital.
