Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have cramps in the lower right abdominal area . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like appendicitis , constipation , infection of the right Kidney , kidney Stones , crohn’s Disease , ovulation Pain and right Ovarian Cysts . Sometimes abs exercises can also cause abdominal pain . I would suggest you to consult general surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may order ultrasound , X-ray , kidney function test and blood test and treat it accordingly . Doctor may refer you to gastroenterologist if there is gastro problem or nephrologist . For now take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain and apply hot rubber bag on abdomen .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
