What would cause extreme cramping and pain near the area where the xyphoid process is located? It s happened a couple of times before. The pain is acute and centalized near the xiphoid process; however, enter the pain is so intense it feels like it s spreading to my general abdomen area below the rib cage. It s happened a few times before. What could this be?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concern. It could be a pain of gastritis and indigestion because these kind of pain are poorly localised. It can spread to to left side below rib cage and may go to your back. Take tab pantop 40 and mucain gel. You will feel better. Try to stick to a healthy food regimen and drink plenty of water. Try not to take stress.
