When your hungry where exactly does it hurt ?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Hunger pains: It may hurt anywhere in the stomach but most frequently the hunger discomfort would be located in the upper central portion of the abdomen right below the breastbone or where the ribs meet together.

Differs: Different people feel this differently. Most would say it is in the "pit" of their stomach - somewhere between the belly button and breast bone.
