Hello. Welcome to hcm.
Previous surgeries are safe as they have been done atleast 3yrs back. So pain now has nothing to do with those surgeries.
Sharp pain abdomen can be due to various causes from obstruction to infection. It has to be diagnosed after examination and tests.
i advice you to visit your physician who will take a detailed history and will order tests after examination and then treat you accordingly.
All the best
