What Causes Recurrent Abdominal Pain On The Right Side?

I have recurring (but not constant) uncomfortable feeling or pain on the right side of my abdomen and in line with my belly button
and have had repeated bowel movement for last couple of days (6-7 times a day) and often pass wind. Bowel movement are not always diarrhea, but small and ribbon like. I have had a ultrasound scan as my doctor thought I may have a gallstone or similar issue and all came back OK for liver, gall bladder, pancreas, liver, kidneys etc.. I have been taking Lansoprasole 30mg as prescribed my my doctor to ensure that I don't have problems with another duodenal ulcer (which I had last diagnosed nearly 30 years ago now).However, pain is still there (but not all the time).
