Hello,
Gastritis is a possibility. Other conditions like costochondritis and fibromyalgia also are considered.
As a first-line management antacid like omeprazole or pantoprazole can be taken.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
