Hello,
Pain in the right part of the abdomen may be visceral - due to the problem in the gastrointestinal tract, liver etc or it may be muscular.
I suggest you get an ultrasound abdomen to know the status of all visceral organs.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
