What Could It Be If Having Lower Abdominal Pain After Having A Meal Which Shifts From Left To Right?

I have lower abdominal pain on the left hand side now, for a while it used to be on the right and it just shifts from time to time. This has been going on for quite some time. It is painful in that exact spot when i pee yet I don't feel any other pain other than that spot. It also hurts after I have a meal. What could this be?

HI. Undergone through the history carefully and repeatedly.
Painful in the exact spot and hurts when you have a meal.
This looks to an inflamed appendix or any other part of the intestine which is adjacent to the urinary bladder so giving both sort of pains.(this is indicated by pain increase after food is an indication of reflex gastrointestinal reflex
Ultrasonography and other tests will guide for the diagnosis. You may need a surgery if a course of medical management including antibiotics. Get an opinion of a Gasrto surgeon
