Pain in my right rib.

I have a pain in my right rib feels like something is taring or going to explode. It is getting worse day by day, it started just hurting when i cough now its when i move or i wake up and stand. It hurts to breath to sneeze, to lift my arms above my head... everything... I went to the ER and the ran blood work and did and x-ray said they didn't see anything and it could be my gallbladder or a muscle strain....i just dont see why it is getting worse..... PLEASE HELP

I know from personal experience that if it is a strained muscle it could hurt you for sometime. Have you fallen recently on that side? if so you might have a bruised rib
