Brief Answer:
Could be constipation or diverticulitis
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
How bad is the pain?
It seems to be related to under-eating and resulting constipation. You may drink lots of water and juices to get relief. Eating lots of fruits will also help. You may take Lactulose syrup 1 spoon before sleeping for 2 days to relieve symptoms.
Since it started recently, an ultrasound whole abdomen may be needed to find exact diagnosis. Seeing a surgeon will also help to rule out any surgical issues.
