Pain Under Breast, Soreness, Taken Antacids, Have Strange Taste In Mouth

I have been experiencing quite severe pain under my left breast , near the heart area. Feels sore to the touch, bruised even. I have had this for a week. I have used several antacid medication from over the counter. I lost my appetite earlier in the week, also felt sickly and have a strange taste in my mouth. Not sure if these are linked to the pain I am experiencing.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain that you have is likely to be due to dyspepsia or hiatus hernia. You need proton pump inhibitors for 2-3 weeks for proper treatment.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
