I'm not gonna lie, between the dirty camera lens and the color of the filament, I can't tell wtf is going on in this pic at all

would this be under extrusion? but why would it only happen to one side? it keeps happening on different prints. i added cardboard sides to my ender 5 pro but it only seems to have negligibly helped. i tried upping the flow rate on the printer to 115 (??) and it seems to have helped some but now im stringing more.

some questions- I'm not really sure I have a firm grasp of what's happening... can you provide more pictures with different angles? and maybe some nifty circles or something so we know what you're looking at?
I do see what might be some underextrusion going on in the top infil near the upper half (above the center hole?) that I don't see in the bottom half of that same infil. If your bed isn't perfectly level, that could cause that. (as the high side would squish the filament a bit more.
the other thing that's standing out is the not-solid infill has the almost molten appearance of being too hot? that could definitely just be the picture, mind you, but if you haven't, I'd run a temp tower test. I like this model,
Here's hopefully a better picture. It's the bottom of the pic. One side appears mostly fine but with some blemishes. The bottom which should have the same texture looks very rough like filament is missing.
