Hi,
The abdominal organs that are located on the right side of the body include the liver, gallbladder and pancreas. Are you having any other symptoms in addition to the pain under your right ribs? When did you first have the pain? Is the pain constant or does it come and go? How severe is the pain? Does anything precipitate the pain? For example, does eating a large meal or fatty food trigger the pain? If this pain is not just something that you felt once but rather persists then consult your physician to be evaluated.
Thank you for your question.
