Right sided abdominal pain?

I have a pain on the mid-right side of my abdomen. It intensifies and lessons throughout the day. Sometimes I can bear the pain and then other times it hurts so bad I have to walk hunched over because standing straight gives me sharp pains on the right side. It also hurts when I push my belly button in. I was wondering if anyone has had this and knows what it could be. Also when I lie on my right side it hurts bad and takes me awhile to get up. I am a 32 year old female if that helps.

Could be your appendix (I doubt it though as you couldn’t stand to press on it) or also an ovarian cyst. See your doctor.
With appendicitis you want to lie absolutely still; later stages include severe vomiting (which strangely enough is not accompanied by diarrhea, because it sure feels like the flu from hell so where are the trots?)
My surgeon’s sure-fire test for appendicitis (after the ultrasounds and x-rays, of course) was to lift my right foot and give it a sound thump on the heel. He says when it’s the appendix they “go for his throat every time” (I did)
A year later when I had an ovarian cyst rupture I’d have sworn the man failed to take the appendix out…symptoms were very similar but milder with the cyst.
