What Causes Intense Pain On My Left Side Of Upper Abdomen?

I have absolutely intense pain on my left side of my upper abdomen., right below my ribs. What could this be? It was sudden and hurt bad enough to make my eyes tear up. It's been 10 minutes, and it's gotten a little better if i stay completely still lying down.

Hi

Yours symptoms may be related with :
bowel problem ( I need to know if you suffer from constipation?)
