Good day and thank you for posting this question. Yes, it could be a Musculoskeletal pain because of the muscle and the ribs there. The ultrasound scan you did will show if you have a fatty liver and if it doesn't show it means you don't have a fatty liver.
If I were your doctor I will give you a pain killer like Acetaminophen to use and watch whether the pain will subsides.
I hope it helps.
Thank you.
