What Causes Severe Stomach Pain?

I have stomach pains a lot usually both lower quadrants. Lately it has been the right lower quadrant and more so when I lay on my stomach. I'm 19 and female. It's a sharp pain. Tolerate it because I have no insurance. I need to know if I need medical attention and what it could be?

Hi,

That can be either due to appendicitis or ureteric stone or ovarian cyst.

You need to get an ultrasound of your abdomen to help reach a diagnosis. As management of each is different.
