What Causes Itchy Skin Along With Pain Below The Sternum?

Hi i had a skin itching / alergic reaction to something unknown last Sunday night. I also had pain just below my chest (sternum). I took 1 tablet of paracetamol and after about half hour took 1 tablet of naproxen without any food. I am now having sudden pains on my stomach?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is really allergic condition then it has to be given try with antihistamine and not with antipyretic because it may cause the gastric irritation or cause hyperacidity, some allergic conditions are self limiting and no need to worry about this hope this information helps.
