Intense Burning In Diaphragm, Cause ?
just had an a fairly intense, tollerable burning in my diaphrgm area just below the rib cage. Lasted about a minute. I never get heartburn or acid reflux . so what is this all about? I am 55, non smoker, 6 , 220lbs, healthy eater... but I did try a small bell pepper last night and the night before--which I never eat, but I was at a guests house so I tried it anyway... only had milk and cereal for breakfast about two hours ago?

the reaction to any food item can cause this as there is history of taking bell paper you never eat
and the new item can cause reaction causing the symptom you wrote
you can use anti allergic tabs
antacid gels
non oily non greesy non fatty food for some days
