lower right quadrant pain

First heres some additional information, im a 14 year old female and have 15 degree scoliosis and IBS

So recently there has been this pain in my stomach, it's to the right and a little bit lower to my belly button. it sometimes hurts randomly or when I move my right leg. It worsens when i put my leg to my chest, stretch my leg, or just applying pressure. I took I beuprofen yesterday and it does help but it came back this morning.

Is this just the result of my IBS or because I slept weird?? Im clueless.

Hi. So, I'll try to answer your question but please know, it's hard to say from this vantage point.  A gazillion little things can cause us to have a couple of days of discomfort.  Most things easily resolve but if they do not, it's time to tell your mom/dad and see what they think.  They can help you best as they are there with you and also will have access to providing you with actual care.  

If it were upper right, I'd wonder about gallbladder but it is lower right it sounds like.  Lower right can be associated with the appendix. Also, it can be associated, most definitely, with your IBS.  It is very common to have this type of pain with IBS.  

I'd talk to your mom about this pain if it continues (and that you are also sure it is not menstrual cramps).

Also, here are some tips for handling IBS which I'm sure you have been advised on if you have an official diagnosis but thought I'd link something you could copy and paste into your browser as well.  https://www.healthline.com/health/ibs-home-remedies-that-work#exercise
Along with IBS and the appendix (which can act up in a chronic way, not only as the archetypal acute attack), another thing it could be is an ovarian cyst.
