Suffering From Pain On The Underneath Of The Rib Cage

Pain on right side underneath the rib cage. All tests at the ER (X-rays, bloodwork, urine sample,etc..) came back perfect. Feel a popping when i lay on that side. Pain is better over several days but it is still hard to twist my torso or breath in deep.
