Varies: There are multiple potential causes, I would not hesitate to be seen. The liver, gall bladder, right lower lung, and the lining of the lung, the ribs and the intercostal muscles are all in that area and can potentially cause pain. A detailed history, exam, and appropriate studies can usually determine the cause.
