Hi.
Thanks for your query.
The fluttering in right lower abdomen for 1 week. Not much painful but is waking you up at night indicates that it is painful.
you have regular bowel movements, used protection during the last intercourse.

We have to think about: appendicitis, colitis, right ureteric colitis and so on.
This can be diagnosed by an ultrasonography of the abdomen and the tests of the blood, urine and stool tests.

You will need a treatment with an antibiotic and metronidazole, probiotic , symptomatic and supportive.
