Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The sharp pain you feel when you swallow food or take a drink below your solar plexus right in between your ribs, could be due to stomach disturbances. Should run upper endoscopy, abdominal ultrasound and physical examination by gastrohepatologist.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have further queries.
