General & Family Physician,  's  Response
thank you, and pleased to answer you.
as you are a smoker, and with this pain felt in your right side chest, a clinical examination is needed, and a possible X-ray of the chest can be asked.
a painkiller can be prescribed to you at this moment before having the results of those exams asked before.
best wishes.
