Dear friend, welcome to HCM.
simply gases in the bowel can cause pain sometimes.
but if is constantly on the right lower chest/ upper abdomen, you need to rule out-liver-gallbladder related problems. an ultrasound of the abdomen ,LFTs would be useful.
gallstones etc. could cause such pain.
Take care and pl. keep me posted on your progress.
