Pain In Rib Under Breast, Tender To Touch, Getting Fever. What Is Going On?

I am having pains in my right rib area directly under my right breast . The pain is dull until I take a deep breath, move just right, or lie down. When I do these things it gets extremly painful. The pain starts in the front and radiates to the back and the area is tender when I touch it. This has been going on for 3 days and each evening I have been getting a fever of around 101. I have been looking up costochondritis but nothing about it says anything about fever. Can you give me an idea about what is going on?

Hello.In view of symptoms it can be more of issue related to gall bladder or liver.Particularly fever is more suggestive of this.I think you should see doctor for this and get a sonography done for this. Regards.
