See a doc: This may be an intercostal strain or an upper abdominal strain. If there was trauma, then a contusion or rib injury would be possible. A lung condition such as an infection and/or pleurisy are possibilities. Since there is a wide range of causes, and this sounds to be a persistently painful situation for you, i recommend a physician evaluation to narrow the diagnosis and to get specific treatment.
