Not likely: But not impossible. I am glad you got some things checked out. Could be bruised rib or musculoskeletal in origin. It could be many things, hard to speculate here. If it does not get better soon, see your doc again. Be well!

MRI: U/S is a good start but not the most definitive. If pain persists I would get a MRI of the abdomine.
