HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Yes, if he is in severe pain, he should either go to his doctor's office or an emergency center.
His doctor can also visit him at home if you can considering this option but may still need to send him to a medical center for treatment.
Since the pain is on the right upper side of the abdomen, it may be related to the gallbladder or liver.
I hope this helps
