Sure: Signs of appendicitis are lack of appetite, moderate to severe pain that starts around the navel and slowly migrates to the right side, rarely-left all associated with progressing abdominal rigidity. Can have fever too. If gets worse, see a doctor.

Abdominal pain: Yes, abdominal pain can be due to a variety of issues and can move in location. Gas and constipation can occur due to stress. Consider decreasing stressful situations and increase water intake. Also, slowly increase fiber and eat a varied healthy diet including fruits and vegetables.
