Epigastric pain refers to pain or discomfort below the ribs in your upper abdomen area. Causes range from acute digestive issues like acid reflux to chronic conditions, such as esophagitis.

Epigastric pain is not always a cause for concern. It may be due to something harmless, like overeating or lactose intolerance, or an underlying condition such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), inflammation, or infection.
