Question: Hi,
I'm a 54 year old woman. After last period, I keep getting a sharp pain in lower right abdomen that extends to outer thought and buttock. It was so bad last night it woke me up. It seems to go away after I take a couple of Advil. I've also been constipated.
Thanks for your time.

Brief Answer:
Can be a muscle pain.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the lower right abdomen can be due to constipation or due to a muscle pull in the area due to an abnormal posture.
As the pain is getting relieved with Advil, it seems to be a muscular pain. You can also do a hot compress for relief. Such pains usually subside with proper rest in 3-5 days. In case the pain is severe or persistent then do consider going to your physician for an examination.

I hope this answers your query.

In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
