Hello,
It can be a gastritis related pain.
As a first line management you can take antacids like omeprazole or pantoprazole for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
We have to rule out possible cardiac causes also.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
