What Causes Sudden And Severe Pain In Right Lower Abdomen?

yesterday when i got up everything was fine. Later in the day when I was standing I suddenly had a severe pain on my right side lower ab area. I curled up in a ball and it subsided in about 10 min. I then had sweats and carried on with what I was doing. Then about 1/2 hr later same thing. I went home from work and layed down. The pain is less when I'm laying down but when I get up it hurts. I'm 45 male no prior pain. It does not hurt when I push on my stomach area. I feel like I have to go have a bowel movement but couldn't. Sine last night I did have a loose one. Any idea

welcome to Health care magic.
1.The symptoms you are describing are mixed - seems like gastritis and enteric causes.
2.Mean while you can change your diet into a basic form, avoid junk food alcohol, take excessive of salads and fruits, with multiple portions ( for gastritis and enteric pathology) for at least 2 weeks and see.
3.If any change and better condition you can continue.
4.If not you need to gat an ultrasound to rule out negative findings and get in to conclusion.
5.A CT might be needed for better evaluation of the bowel.
6.Get an appointment with your GP and get the needful investigations done.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
