General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Such pain can be caused by acid reflux disease, esophagus inflammation, esophageal diverticulum, esophagus cancer or any other esophagus or stomach disease. You should have upper GI endoscopy which should tell the reason of your symptoms.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
