What Causes Pain In The Right Chest?

I feel slight pain on my right side chest. When I take a deep breath or when I try to turn my upper body towards right and left, I feel the pain. My pain arising from local tissue will increase on touch and pressure and it will be feasible to localize it. It will also be elicited by any movement of that part of chest.
