Pain In Upper Right Abdomen. Due To Gall Bladder Issues Or Pulled Muscle?

This is the third day in a row that I have had a pain in my upper right abdomen . I only feel it when I take a deep breath or do certain workouts. It hurts enough that I have been cutting my workouts short or modifying them. I am optimistic that it might be a pulled muscle, but am fearful that it is my gull bladder . Any ideas what might be causing the pain?

Hi
Pain in the upper part of the abdomen on right side may be due to Gallbladder stones.It may also be due to kidney stones.
A simple Ultrasound abdomen will confirm the diagnosis.
If Ultrasound abdomen is normal,then it can be musculskeletal pain.
Please take anti inflammatory drug till Ultrasound abdomen is taken.
If you come back with the report,i will clarify
Wish you good health
Regards
