What Causes Excruciating Pain On The Right Side Of The Stomach?

Hello.
For the past 4-5 days, the right side of my stomach has hurt. It's not excruciating pain but it hurts. Made worse when I press on it. I have also had an on and off low grade fever (around 99.5 degrees) and nausea. Also, the right side of my stomach feels harder than the left side.

Based on your description, you seem to be suffering from gastritis. If that is the case, you would need to take omeprazole capsule once daily before breakfast for one and a half months. You also need to take small but frequent meals. However, the final diagnosis can be made only after proper examination and I strongly insist that you visit a doctor and get yourself examined.
The low grade on and off fever needs to be investigated and is probably unrelated to your abdominal pain. You would need to get it investigated to rule out conditions like tuberculosis which could be a possible cause.
