Suggest Treatment For Internal Itch Feeling And Pain In Lungs Area

Hi - I am a 27 year old female. A few weeks ago - I felt an internal itch that seemed to be in my lungs on the right side below my right breast. Over the past few weeks - it almost feels like a soreness with sharp pains from time to time internally under my right breast/rib cage. I am not sure where the pain is coming from - if it is my lungs, gallbladder or liver? All I know is the internal itch is still there and the general discomfort and from time to time stabbing pain in that area.
