What Causes Severe Pain In The Solar Plexus?

I have been having really bad solar plex pain for almost 5 hours now (also bloating and heartburn) tried everything (otc Mylanta, zantac, apple cider vinegar, gingerale, crackers, water... with no relief, even made myself throw up and nothing has worked. I am 46 yr old woman in good (not great health) am overweight but no diabetes, heart disease, or major issues. I take non narcotic pain relief daily for past back and knee surgery/injuries. This pain is so intense it hurts to breath (not preg... had hysterectomy). what do you think? anything else to try?

Hello,

As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief.

If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
