See your doctor: This is a problem that necessitates a face-to-face meeting with your doctor. This will allow him/her to examine you, ask specific questions. And possibly order tests to find out what's wrong and what to do to help you.

Need more info: A diagnosis is impossible without more information or an examination. When did it start, what makes it better or worse? Any nausea? If it has gone on for more than a week or so and not getting better...Call your pcp.

Don't know BUT..: If pain becomes more severe (especially if in right lower quadrant of abdomen), you lose appetite, develop nausea or vomiting - would get urgent med eval to ensure that you don't have appendicitis. Take care.

Is : Is it the right side of your abdomen? If you have abdominal pain, if it is accompanied by fever, vomiting, or other symptoms such as not being able to eat or drink, then you must be medically evaluated. We always worry that right-sided abdominal pain is appendicitis.

Unanswerable: This question should probably be asked again. Your pain is on the right side of what? Your head? Your stomach? Your arms? Your legs?
Please also the word pain is very ambiguous. Be more specific.
