Sounds like stomach: There are many issues that can occur in that area, but gastritis or other issues with the stomach are the most likely. See your doc to get test. Try prilosec OTC in the meantime and avoid acidy foods, caffeine, soda, and spicy foods. Could also be your abdominal muscles, liver, gall bladder, or spleen. Get checked out!!
