Pain in epigastric region and left rib
I have been having pain in the epigastric region and the left rib alongside the same location for the past 2 or 3 weeks, mostly intermittently. It happens either after eating or between meals or sometimes after defecation, as soon as the stomach starts to feel empty. Sometimes the pain accelerates so much that I experience chest pain exactly where the ribs form an inverted V (picture included). Antacids like eno only help then. But it is a very bad experience and i would be obliged if anyone could suggest any medicines for this issue. Previously i had lanzol 30 for rib pain should I have that again? Other than that I have no fever or pain elsewhere. I don't have any regular medicines. Please, help me?🙏

Please consult with a General Physician in your area. You have been having pain in the same area for 3 weeks. That is a good enough time to seek treatment. For such pain the first consultation should be by physical examination.
