Sharp pain under lower right side ribs, hurts to cough or breathe deeply, lasts from a few hours to a few weeks at a time..

Ribs: Could be rib joint irritation, muscle spasm, stomach problem, lung problem or gall bladder are most likely options. Probably rib problem since it hurst to cough or beath deeply. I would talk to pcp about x ray and try anti inflammatories if you can take these.
