Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
You are getting this problem either due to a surgical condition like appendicitis or diverticulitis which gets aggravated sometimes..

Another possible reason is that you may suffering from a condition called irritable bowel syndrome..

IT is always a better idea to get an opinion and clinical examination by a Gastroenterologist, to undergo the investigations as per his orders. I would suggest you to undergo contrast enhanced CT scan done along with ultrasonography and color doppler studies.
I find this answer helpful
