What Causes Pain In Upper Right Quadrant Of The Body After An Injury?

I fell on my back 2 days ago on slippery concrete and knocked the breath out of myself. X-rays were negative for breaks but i have acute pain when i cough, sit up, lay down or turn in the wrong direction. It is not a persistant pain but is triggered by my actions. Pain is located in upper right quadrant. Could this be just muscle damage that will heal in a week or so? Or do I need to revisit my doctor.
