What Causes Severe Right Upper Quadrant Pain?

I have URQ pain both in my back and around my side to the front. Have had the pain off and on for a year but has become worse in the last month. Can be severe at times, enough to be debilitating especially after sitting for long periods of time. Doc has ruled out kidney/liver issues and determined that it is muscular and my weight is causing this pain. If this is the case, what can I do to find relief in the meantime.

Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist,  's  Response
sitting for a long time can cause muscles to go under spasm you should have a good walk daily for atleast of 20-30 mins initially do stretching excercises , get a physiotherapy session in that hot fomentation,laser therapy and ultrasonic therapy will help you alot.
avoid smoking,drinking,junk food.
maintain your body weight as well because our body load is more on back and knees and ankle.
your chair should be comfortable too much bend of back is not good and if you use laptop or computer make sure the screen should be on eye level.
Always take a side turn while getting up from bed
donot bend forward and do not lift heavy weights for a time.
too much of long sitting and standing should be avoided.
