My Doctor told me that sometimes the lymph nodes swell when there's an infection in the body which might make sense if she has a kidney infection.
Appendicitis pain starts in the middle of the stomach and will move to the left AND right sides of the body as well as lower back pain even though the appendix is on the right side. This is also a sign of bladder/kidney infection as I found out last week with my DD.
