Thank you!  I certainly hope I help some people, otherwise there would be no point to me being here.  I just had another thought about your belly pain as well...have you ever had diverticulosis diagnosed from a CT scan or a colonoscopy?  If you eat food items that have small seeds in them, like poppy seed salad dressing, poppy seed bagels, sesame seed rolls, raspberries, kiwi's, etc..they can get caught up in the folds of your colon, and though they are typically seen on the left side, they can also be on the right.  They can make your colon get inflamed and painful as well...when that happens its called diverticulitis and requires two different antibiotics to treat it (most often Flagyl and Cipro)...some people even require hospitalization when they have flare up of it.  Sometimes, even though you may be having a daily bowel movement, you can still be constipated, and that can cause abdominal pains as well, of the type you describe.  I am hopeful that your doctor has you returning to his office for a follow up check of you and your urine to insure that the bacteria has responded to the antibiotic.  If you don't please do so, and at that time, you can mention the right sided pain still.  Again, good luck!

No pain is not that hard to bend me up its like pin pointed and it flows some time like electric current towards back right on hip bone you can say side of leg (top of thigh where uper body and lower body meet) some times it comes when i feel gas in intestine and after going washroom its gone in seconds but the place is same right side (2 inches) from belly button.  you are very helpful by the way...great regards :)

Not just yet.  Given that you have no fever and the pain does go away, it could be more in line with spasms in your bladder or ureters.  If you do start to have pain that doubles you right up...by all means get to the ER and have them take a peek at you!

Thanks. yeah i'm drinking 8 to 10 liters a day but whenever i drink water the right side swells a little and gas starting to build up i don't have any problem releasing it but its painful i just felt pain while taking a long breath right below 2 inches on the right side of navel. its was like sudden short term and sharp it comes and gone in a second. what do you think do i need to go for CT scan of Appendix?

Great news.  Be sure to drink lots of water while on antibiotics to insure good absorption.  Also, be on the look out for any yeast infection that may develop from the antibiotic killing off your body's good bacteria too.

You need to make an appointment with your primary medical doctor to get a urinalysis done to rule out a urinary tract infection, ...urine should be pale yellow in color if you are adequately hydrated.  He may want to do some additional testing as well.   Good luck!
