Dear sir/madam. Yesterday I did ultrasound because of my stomach pain, in my report "appendix is not visualised due to bowel gas" what is meant? What is treatment for it?

Don't worry Janak. That simply means that there was gas in your intestines due to which appendix could not be seen. This usually happens when you eat before an ultrasound. However if you still have a lot of pain and its in lower right part of your stomach(abdomen), you may get a repeat ultrasound done with an empty stomach.
