What Causes Pain And Rashes In The Epigastric Area?

10yo boy with sudden epigastric pain after swim practice. No nausea, no vomiting. He says he felt similar a long time ago but resolved. No distention, small goosebump-like rash in epigastric area but not sure if related to his pushing on it. He had normal dinner. No fever. Urine light yellow. He has had all of his vaccines.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, I had gone through the history given and I could say that the epigastric pain if happening after swimming then it could be muscular pain and if it is not due to swimming then it could be due to dyspepsia, or acid peptic disease, condition can be managed with PPI (proton pump inhibitor) lime Rabiprazole 10 mg once in day, it may not be anything to worry hope this information helps.
