what could cause an ocassional stabbing pain between the ribs and hip

There isn't much in the area you are speaking of, so, it is most likely referred pain from something in the adjacent area.

It could be a strained muscle.
 
You need to be a little bit more specific, is there any other symptoms. On that side you have to be aware that problems could occur in your liver or gall bladder. Do you drink alot of alcohol, do you get the pains after eating certain foods etc. The more info the better members can help you.
 
Hi, it could be costrochondritis....i had it 2 years ago , it lasted about 10 months....painful , see a doctor. Good luck, how are you feeling now, better?
