What may be the cause of slight discomfort/pain at the right abdomen that comes and goes a few times a day and lasts a few seconds or minutes? it's been happening for a few months. can it be colon cancer or something else?

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Colon cancer is unlikely at your age. If your symptoms get worse, iIt would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
