What is causing abdominal pain?

Hello, I’m a male 23 years old and I’m trying to figure out if my abdominal pain is serious enough to go get checked out. Been having pain 3 inches above my belly button right side only it comes here and there. I’m not so sure if it’s from my posture cause I sit in a chair all day from gaming and I slouch a lot or my diet is really bad? I eat fast food ALOT. I only weigh around 140 and I’m 5’10.

I’m scared to go get checked up but I feel like it’s a combination of my posture and diet.

    Gallbladder, appendix, IBS, chronic alcohol consumption, chronic fructose ingestion.

    Just to name a few.

    So let's look at your choices

    1. Get an Internet Diagnosis from people who have no idea your specific medial history or with any lack of diagnostic tests at their disposal

    2. Ignore it and hope it goes away

    3. Go see a REAL doctor who can diagnose and determine the cause

    Now, 2 of those 3 options won't actually solve anything and may even cause you more harm if it is something serious. So I'll let you figure out which option may be the best for you.

    I get the same thing, mine was gall bladder related. Cut the fast food out and if you drink, take a week off from booze. Exercise helps tremendously. But to be safe, see your doc and get an ultrasound.
