Brief Answer:
Hello dear. You require evaluation

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I have gone through the details. The cause of chest pain on right side can be many like pleurisy, pleural effusuon, or rarely pneuomothorax or pneumonia or costo-chondritis etc. Atleast a clinical examination and chest xray will be required to pinpoint a diagnosis.
Please get a chest x-ray done. Till then some analgesics like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can be taken to relieve pain.
Thanks and regards
