Suggest Treatment For Extreme Pain In The Lower Rib Cage

I have been experiencing extreme pain in the lower rib cage on the right side of my body and it extends from the ribs through to my back. The pain is constant but accelerates when I cough, bend over, twist, lift etc. or try to lay on my right side when I try to go to sleep. The pain exists regardless of whether I have eaten or not.
