Hello There

After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that xiphoid pain can stay for longer time sometimes. You can use low dose pain killer and hot fomentation to get relief.

Hopefully this information will guide you properly.

Kind Regards
Dr Bhanu Partap
