Suggest Treatment For Tingling In Abdominal Area

I recently started experiencing tingleing / pins and needles in lower right abdominal area around where the lower colon or appendix is located.

This began a couple days ago. In the weeks prior to this I had been drinking a lot more soda (coca cola and mexican coca cola), Redbull energy drink and coffee because I have been working a lot and need the caffeine to work long hours. Also been drinking a couple beers after work to help me go to sleep after all the caffeine during the day.

Also, I hadn't exercised much over the past year until a month before this started happening. In the month prior to this I'd been working out five times a week. 90 minute aerobic 1 day a week, 60 minutes aerobic exercise 1 day a week, 10 minute strength training 3 days a week.

any idea what it is / could be?

Hello,
Pain in the right side if the abdomen , could be because of any Gastric related issues or any local issues, as u have had a change in food habits over a couple of weeks with high coffee/ sugary fluid intakes, could be probably Gastric related issues, it's better firstly to get back to your normal life style and try to avoid coffee/ fatty meals , keep eating at regular intervals with adequate water intake and please consult your Gastroenterologist so that you can be examined and get a USG abdomen and an Upper GI endoscopy to rule out the same .Hope I could help you.
Thank you.
