What is the cause of pain on my right side in the rib cage? it's a sharpe pain that lasts for 5 min and goes away and come back.

Gallbladder?: Depending on where the pain is, and your risk factors. If its low and in the front of the rib cage, it might actually be your gallbladder. Gallbladder attacks are often shortly after eating a fatty or greasy meal. You should see your physician to find out for sure.
