Some possibilities..: If one has very uncomfortable tummy pain, and is normally in good health, plus is not pregnant, the possibilities include: appendicitis (usually R lower abdomen), diverticulitis, kidney stone (very painful), constipation (crampy), stomach flu, etc... Most people with "moderate pain," more than mild pain, may need a doctor's evaluation to be sure it's not appendicitis, which would need surgery.

Go to ER: If the pain is severe and lasting for more than a few hours, it is best to be examined by your doctor. If this is from appendicitis, waiting too long may lead to rupture of the appendix causing life-threatening infections. However it is not possible to tell you what may be causing the pain but I am usually concerned when the pain radiates to the back.
