Does it by chance feel better if you put pressure on it? Like with your fist balled up?
Is it worse at night or after you have eaten something fatty?

If so, You may need your gallbladder checked.

Appendix is usually in the lower abdomen but I suppose it could be that. Gas is a possibility too.

Best advice would be to have it checked by your doctor. Tell mom about it and have her make you an appointment. :)

It could be from your period, but those cramps would probably be lower than that and aren't usually just on one side. Since it's on your right side you should see a doctor immediately to make sure it's not your appendix. I'm not trying to scare you or anything, but if it is your appendix and you don't get it removed soon enough, you could die. So it's really important to get that checked out. It could also be an ovarian cyst, which is something else you need to go to a doctor for. Good luck.

It could very well be your period is coming but it could also be something with your apendix, but im not a doctor and im not trying to freak you out but you might want to get it checked out.

Hope I helped =)

Many different factors can cause gas to build up inside your stomach, which leads to any number of uncomfortable feelings: stomach pain, cramps and -- most embarrassingly -- flatulence (farting).

Stomach discomfort can be caused by lots of things including constipation, hepatitis, hormonal changes, indigestion, inflammation of the stomach lining, irritable bowel syndrome, lactose intolerance and ulcers.

Many foods, such as beans, broccoli, soy products, milk products and eggs can also cause cramps and gas. In many cases, especially if you feel crampy, simply passing gas or having a bowel movement can fix the problem, at least temporarily. However, when the pain or discomfort caused by excessive gas becomes frequent, it can make everyday life difficult.

a lot of girls that are about to get their period have weird side effects & random pains like that. some get them in their stomach by their ribs, near their belly button, in their arm pit, boobs, etc. talk to your mom, a family member, a friend, the nurse at school, etc. it probably is juss cramps, but to make sure you should tell someone about it.

-hope that helped!♥
