Tender area below armpit

On my right side a few inches below armpit, there's a small area of my ribs that really hurts but only when I touch it. Sometimes the pain can be felt in my back near the right shoulder blade area and I think it's connected. It comes and goes, I didn't think much of it but it's starting to bother me. Doesn't hurt when I breathe in, or move my arm, no lumps or bruising. Sometimes it feels like a stinging pain.

I've not had any injury to the area. All I can think of is strain caused by carrying DS and I also tend to sleep on my right side. If it was muscular, surely it would have gone by now? I first noticed the ache November time. Could it be gallbladder related? I've read about something called costochondritis but not sure if it's that.

If the pain is travelling from one side of the body to the other and it has been happening since November you should see your GP
