Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* As per my clinical experience, the sharp pain with cramps around belly area may be due to early appendicitis or other issues.
* I recommend to undertake lab tests with complete blood counts and CT scan of the abdomen & pelvis for best evaluation of the cause and manage accordingly.
