What causes pain under sternum after eating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nothing good....: Pain after eating felt in the middle of the chest could be related to cardiac issues but also to your esophagus. Esophageal stricture's can cause discomfort. You should definitely be checked by your doctor to see if you need upper endoscopy or cardiac workup.
