What Causes Sharp Stabbing Pain Below The Ribcage?

Hi, I have noticed a very short, sharp stabbing pain in the upper right side of my abdomen. It is up the the edge of my rib cage. It only lasts for about one second and then goes away and it happens every 10 minutes or so. It started about 12 hours ago, it did not interrupt my sleep last night and it is continuing this morning. (it probably a 5-6 on a scale of 10 for pain). I don t have a fever that I know of and I m not taking any medications of any kind. I m male, 5 9 , 270 lbs and 52 years old. Thanks.
