I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to appendicitis. I suggest to do an abdominal ultrasound for further evaluation. If the diagnosis is confirmed, the treatment may consist in surgery.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
