pain above my rib cage

I am having severe pain on my left side right above my rib cage, it's like a sharp pain every time I move my left arm up or down. I don't see any marks so maybe it's just a bruise on the inside. It has been two days and it's getting worse. What should I do for this? or Where should I go for help?

Yes. You can search for in-network providers in your area by utilizing the Provider Finder on Blue Access for Members (BAM). Once you have signed in to your account on our website at www.bcbsnm.com you will want to select the Doctors & Hospitals tab and click the link to: Find a Doctor or Hospital. Once redirected, you will need to use the white box near the center of the screen to search for a provider by name or provider type/specialty. It is recommended that you always verify with the provider that he/she is in-network at the time services are rendered. ~ Heather

I do not have a primary doctor. So should I look for a regular Doctor for this?
