What Causes Abdominal Bloating And Pain Around The Rib Cage?

I have bloating, gas, and dull pain in my left side from rib cage down to the center of the left side that started gradually yesterday with just bloating but became more painful through the night. The pain is relieved by passing gas, but is seriously intensified by deep breathing. The pain becomes quite sharp then. No fever, but very lethargic. and Heartburn, which I never have. I have limited myself to water, ginger tea and chamomile today. I just finished a 3 week round of Prednisone for hives a few days ago. I do plan to go to a Dr tomorrow on Monday.
