What could intermittent pain, like a stitch, at around waist level on the left side be?

I'm new to this site.

Hey I have this pain but on my right side, I get it sometimes when constipated and can’t go, I’ve had mine 3 days on and off but it comes and goes.

The low left side is where the end of the large intestine is located (where the intestine connects to the anus). Pain there is most probably caused by bloating/gaz accumulated from food eaten within the past 3 days. That food has been poorly digested, e.g. due to a food intolerance.

Hi, I get that, I have diverticular disease . Intermittent pains coming and going . I usually go to my doctor and get an antibiotic . Its normally diverticulitis. Maybe you need a colonoscopy to find out what's going on. Might not be the same with you though. . I also get lower stomach ache .

I have this on my right side. Just a bit down and to the right of my belly button. Scopes and scans showed nothing. It comes and goes and at the moment it gets worse on movement/twisting.
