What Causes Pressure Under The Ribs On The Right Side?

I am 55 yr. old female. I have been feeling pressure in my right side under my ribs lately whenever I eat anything, weather it is a cracker or a full meal. I am not allergic to anything and I take multivitamins, turmeric, magnesium and a projection pill because I do hormone replacement therapy. The feeling is a bit like bloating and it goes away if I get up and walk around for about 20 minutes.
