I have this pain in my upper right abdomen under my rib cage for a few weeks now. what could it be?

Abdominal Pain: In that area of the body is the liver and the gall bladder. You are very young for any disease that could be trouble in that area. If the pain persists, you have bruising or have a fever you should be seen urgently.
