Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
There is a quiet broad range of diseases that cause right ribcage pain and nausea.
I wanted to ask you further questions about the pain.
Do you experience fever during the pain?
Is your urination painfull or is blood found in urine?
Is pain getting better if you eat or drink soda ?
Does your skin recently looks yellow and have you experienced darker urine and light coloured stools?
To find the cause you need further examinations such an abdominal ultrasound and a biochemical blood balance. The outcome of this tests will determine the cause and treatment you need.

I do have some fever that comes with the pain. Not every time, but often. I don't have any painful urination or blood in it. It tends to be a darker color though. Sometimes it helps to eat or drink a soda. But I have to be careful about eating - if I eat too much that makes it worse also.
Brief Answer:
Cholecystitis suspected.
Detailed Answer:
Hello. OK, it seems clear now.
It looks like cholecystitis, inflammation of the gallbladder.
It needs to be confirmed by biochemical blood analysis and ultrasound.
You should consult a gastroenterologist.
Treatment depends on the severity of the condition.
Maybe surgery and antibiotics are needed.
