Could be a couple: Of things..You may have a rib that's "popped" out of place which can be very painful especially with movement or you could have something like costochondritis which is inflammation of the cartilage between the ribs. I would suggest a proper exam (an osteopathic doctor would be great if they do manipulations too) or seek out even a chiropractor if that's easier.Try some naproxen twice daily as well
