Likely stretch: One of the few pain sensations registered within the organs of the digestive tract is that of stretch. You eat or drink at "one go" to the point you stretch the stomach walls can trigger such a response. Once it has time to process/push the material further down the digestive tract it should resolve.

I have a sore chest, that feels like a chest infection as the one or two times Ive coughed it hurt. It was also very dry. The chest pain tonight does feel a bit different though, its sore even when I drink water.
