If not relieved in 24 hours or increase in pain , you need to go through an ultra sound abdomen to rule out other possibilities.

Thank you for getting back to me. I will try your suggestions. The pain is primarily only when I take a very deep breath, or yawn. The nausea has subsided, however I still burp frequently. I am also very tired. I tried to make a doctor's appointment, however where I live noone is available. My only opiton would be to go to the Emergency department, and I aht to go there if this is not an emergency. Am I making the correct decision?
Could this also be an ulcer?

Drink lot of water.
