What Causes Pain In And Above The Hip?

hey, I m 17 years old I m having a pain on my right side right above my hip bone kinda and it travels a few inches up kinda into my side. it hurts and starts feeling like I m beginning to be stabbed when i sit or hit it when i move certain ways. It comes and goes. The pain was in the middle of my stomach last night and is progressively worsening in a way. when i try to receive gas when sitting it seems as if it worsens.
