Pain under right rib cage mainly after eating

I am 32 yr male. I am having pain of verious intensity under right rib cage. I noticed this pain particularly after lunch or dinner and might stay for 1 hr to may be 5-6 hrs. I went to my physician and i was having sonography but couldn't find anything. So, I am looking for the diangosis and treatment.

Hi,
Pain below the right  rib cage could be due to liver, gallbladder , pancreatic problem or acid peptic disease.
I would suggest upper Gi endoscopy and tests for pancreatic involvement.
Consult with your doctor for having these tests done.
