What Causes Pain The Rib Cage While Sneezing?

For a couple months now on & off I have had a strange feeling on my left side below rib cage. Would come & go. Seemed to subside when laying down when symptoms 1st presented. Now I started to get the sniffles & sneezed at least 2 dozen times. After omw of these sneezes the pain was 4 or 5x stronger than it had ever been. Which is strange be ause I hadn t noticed the feeling in my left side for at least a week. I sneezed again & the pain was just as bad or worse. I can feel it when bit sneezing right now but it s not painful just uncomfortable. I smoke a lot of marijuana which means I cough many times a day, not sure if that has something to do with it. Not sure what to do.
