What is this pain in my side?

For the past few years I have had a pain in my left rib (it seems) which comes back and goes away at random times. It has troubled me again lately and I’ve had it since Saturday. I am quite fit and do a moderate amount of exercise, I eat fine and I’m not stressed so I don’t know why it keeps coming back or what’s causing it!
Does anyone have any idea if it is a sign of anything?

EXTREMELY sharp pain that comes and goes on the lower left side where my pelvis and thigh connect?

I think the specific area might be a round ligament but im not sure. The pain is VERY intense when it comes, and I haven’t felt very good lately. On Saturday I was having horrible Belly and Pelvic cramping with Lower Back Pain - I almost went to the ER thinking appendicitis but it subsided. But now this evening I am getting these shooting pains? I’m a 24 year old Female btw. Also I have been Regular, so I know its not that, and I am nowhere close to AF. Should I be worried?

What’s causing my stomach pains?

I had stomach pains today - they started just before lunch - sharp pains in my lower abdomen starting on the left side and an achey feeling. I took nurofen and it went away, then came back a few hours later - like period pain but a LOT more painful with sharp pains included. I’m not on my period and had my last period about 2 weeks ago. I came off the pill 2 months ago(but have been using other contraception. Someone at work said I might be ovulating and that it can be painful. Does anyone know? Thanks!

pain in my lower left side?

every now and then I get pain in my lower left side. I have been eating a lot of fiber and going to the bathroom more than usual, could it be the fiber? Sometimes the pain is bad but then it goes away, it feels really tender on that side so im not sure what it could be. Ive been eating a lot more than usual, could it be that? I had the flu 2 months ago and diarrieah bad, ever since that happend my lower left side has not been the same. What could it be? Im only 26 and eat very healthy, like salads and veggies all the time.

Do pain killers and anti-nausea pills lower the effectiveness of birth control pills?

I know that some cold medicines and antibiotics can make birth control pills ineffective. This month I got very ill and I was sent to the ER where I was prescribed Hydrocodone pain medication and Phynigrin(I’m not sure if I spelled it right) anti-nausea medicine. They also ran Iodine based dye through my body twice (on different occasions) as well as i had to digest a drink containing iodine. Can any of that lower the effectiveness of my birth control pill?

Thank you so very much for your time and answers.
