I Have an internal pain on my left side at rear of waistline,
I experience pain in my side when lying down at night.
It has woken me past 3 nights. Panadol seems to ease the pain.
I also believe I have constipation.
I cannot feel any lump on my left side.

HI
Thanks for posting your query to Healthcaremagic.

I went through your query. Pain at the site mentioned by you could be caused due to multiple causes . Some common causes are :

1. Kidney Stones : If the stones are small it passes down from kidney to bladder causing pain anywhere between upper part of abdomen to genital region.

2. Colitis : It is infection of the gut , but usually it will be associated with loose motions but rarely it can cause constipation.

3. Sub Acute Intestinal obstruction : It is partial obstruction of your gut .

4. Hernia :

5 Pelvic Inflammatory disease ( if you are a female )

So you need certain tests to get evaluated for these conditions. Also I need more information on your problem.

Your Sex ? Age ?
Any Urinary problems ?
Any discharge from Penis or Vagina?
Any vomiting?
Any fever?

Get the following test done and revert back .

Ultrasound Abdomen pelvis, Urine routine, Serum Amylase .

I advise you to drink plenty of water , fruit juice, avoid non veg food and eat more of vegetables and fruits.

Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarifications feel free to ask .

I find this answer helpful
