What Causes Pressure Under Rib Cage?

On and off for about 2 weeks, I have had a feeling of pressure under my left rib cage. Its located right in between the last rib and first floating rib. It does not hurt at all. More annoying. I did stretch yesterday and felt bubbles popping? That's the only way to describe it. Its most uncomfortable when sitting but I can still notice it when standing and laying down. I may be able to feel something, but Im not sure if its really something or just part of my rib.
