I am experiencing sharp pains under my rib on my right side when i breathe, lay down or move about. the pain comes and goes but when is comes it's unbearable. should i be worried? is this a cause of concern?

Yes: Check with your doctor to rule out the possibility of having gall bladder problems, otherwise it can be just muscular/skeletal (related to bones and muscles) in that area, warm compresses and NSAIDS, unless contraindicated, can then help, good luck
