My fourteen year old son is having fair to severe lower left abdominal pain. Hurts when I press on a certain area but more when he takes a deep breath or tries to stand.

Hi Welcome to Health Care Magic

Constipation is the most common cause for Left lower abdominal pain in children. There are other causes Gastroenteritis, Trauma. So I recommend getting a X- ray abdomen and check with your pediatrician.
