Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Such pain can be present due to simple infection of the gastrointestinal tract. However it may also indicate more serious issue like bowels obstruction. Especially if your abdomen is bloated, you have diarrhea and/or constipation, recent weight loss, lack of appetite or nausea.
I suggest you to visit a doctor. Abdominal ultrasound, abdominal X-ray, blood work, urine analysis and pregnancy test (if possible) should be done. Stool tests should be considered.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
