Gastritis : Your xiphoid process pain may have been due to a condition called costochondritis. You may have reflux and gastritis which is inflammation of the esophageal and stomach lining, which can cause heartburn and bloating. You can try over the counter Prilosec for 4 weeks to see if this would improve your pain. If not, you should consider seeing a md for evaluation.
