Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be due to pancreatitis, kidney infection/kidney stone, costochndritis, pulmonary cause like pleuritis, gastritis.
I would suggest to consult internal medicine specialist as early as possible and undergo clinical examination, blood tests like CBC, ESR, LFT, KFT, Amylase, USG scan if needed
Specific treatment depend on cause.
Meanwhile following advises will help you
Tablet Dan-MR
Tablet pantoprazole plus domperidone
Apply warm pad application
Take bed rest
Hope this may help you

Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
