What Causes Mild Rib Cage Pain While Breathing Deep?

I m EXTREMELY uncomfortable at he moment, my lower rib cage is causing a mild-ish pain whenever I take a deep breath (enough to keep me from taking deep breaths I mean). This happens whenever I m on my menstrual cycle and I m worried something is wrong? If it s nothing serious is there something I can do to relieve it?
