Thanks for posting your query .

Pain in the upper abdomen region could be due to Hyperacidity, Indigestion causing Stomach Cramps , Infection or pus in liver or a condition called Pancreatitis.

You need to get certain tests to diagnose the cause of your problem . These tests are Liver Function tests , Ultrasound Abdomen , Serum Lipase .

Avoid Spicy and oily food . You can use Anti-spasmodic medication for pain relief till you get the reports . Ask your doctor for the prescription .

Kindly revert back with the reports .
