Under my right rig cage i can feel a hard object i can't feel this when lay down its only when i stand up. could this be a organ i am feeling? no pain

Liver: Your liver lies underneath your right rib cage. As you lie supine, your organs move more posterior (towards your back). When you stand up and exhale, you may possibly feel your liver especially if you are pressing hard enough.
