Nonspecific: There are a number of possibilities, including soft tissue inflammation, muscle sprain/strain, facet mediated pain, rib fracture, herniated disc, intrathoracic pathology, etc. If your symptoms do not improve with time and conservative treatment (i.e. Anti-inflammatory meds), do see a physician.
