68 Y/O female presents with abdominal pain since 4:00 am yesterday afternoon. She complains of pain located in the periumbilical area with localization to the RLQ. She reports a normal bowel movement but has been dealing with constipation for several weeks. She denies any nausea or vomiting, but does complain of some belching, which is new for her. She has no fevers/chills/sweats. She does have a history of similar symptoms last week, which have resolved spontaneously.
This is what I can come up with, any additional help is greatly appreciated!
location--abdominal pain
timing--yesterday afternoon
associated S&S--belching/constipation
Could I use belching or the constipation as a location, or just keep it with signs and symptoms?
I am not sure what else I could use.
Thanks again for your help!
