Where is the pain specifically? Is it up
high under the sternum (the hollow between
the ribs and under the breasts)? Is it
down lower toward the belly button? If it
is up high then that suggests the stomach
and I would think possible gastric ulcer.
Go to your doctor. A doctor can run some
tests and tell you if this is an ulcer. I
don't have any other ideas without more
info. Hope this helps.

It could be from muscle strain. Sometimes
gas pains can present with a burning,
cutting sensation. Pain tells you
something is wrong. Is there any bulging
in the abdomen in that area? Does the pain
feel superficial or is it deeper? Is it in
the center of your abdomen or to one side?
There are many possibilities for abdominal
pain. If it persists you need to see your
doctor. I can try to offer you suggestions
on a possible problem but it is not
possible for me to offer you a diagnosis.
Your doctor has to do that. I will be
happy to answer more questions.

This almost sounds like gastroenteritis,
the fancy clinical name for stomach flu.
It is usually viral and self limiting.
If this persists go see a doctor. Gut pain
can signal troubles from within that need
a doctor's attention.
