What Causes Pain In Lower Rib Along With Shortness Of Breath?

Hi, I m experiencing pain on the right side of my body below the lower rib. On occasion, the pain will shorten my breath. I m currently taking extra strength Tylenol every six hours and drinking a lot of water. The pain was nominal couple of days ago. However, the pain was stronger this morning. Could advise on the potential issue causing my pain. Thank You

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if you have already treated the pain with analgesic and still pain is there then it need to be investigated because it could be due to some abdomen disease or respiratory disease like hyperacidity, hernia hiatus, gastric ulcer, parenchymal disease of lungs, muscular spasm, at the most "Tab Chlorzoxazone" can be tried, hope this information helps.
