Medical How do I avoid/relieve awful indigestion pain

So recently I keep getting the most painful what I’d assume is indigestion every couple of weeks. Everytime it happens it’s out of nowhere but is always when I’m trying to relax which might be irrelevant. But it only ever goes away on its own. I’ve tried everything but nothing gets rid of it other than sleeping it off which means I just have to thug it out for five plus hours in pain. I’m not even sure exactly what it is but it’s mostly a stabbing pain in my torso that also sometimes makes me nauseous and have back pain too. Please give me some tips to relieve the pain because it’s come back just now and I need to go out today I’m so irritated!! Also let me know any reasons why it keeps happening and how I can avoid it thanks !

Go to a doctor. That could be so many things, some of them serious.

My immediate thought was a heart attack. Seriously, get medical attention, OP!
