What Causes Feeling Of Pressure On Left Side Rib Cage While Sitting?

I, for the past 4 days i have a sensations witch has settled in my left side near the rib cage and shoots throught my back sometimes. There is no immediate pain to the touch, but it feels like someone his applying pressure with a finger and the sensation stays. I don't feel it when sleeping or lying down on my back and barely when i stand but I especially notice the sensation while sitting in a chair. It feels like my side/back is leaning against something. However, there is not bulge or bump felt by touch. There has been no change in bowel movements nor have I experienced any nausea or vomiting. Been taking naproxen for a few days still no change. Please help anyway you can has i no longer have any family doctor avalaible in my area has mine retired. thanks for any help
