Hello Mrs.,
Is this pain every day, or is it at certain times, for example after performing a certain activity, exercise or other?
Is it with any kind of pressure or does it have to be hard?
You mention that you have been experiencing this for 3 years, have you ever consulted for this problem?

Every day, but at different times and it's not after I exercise. I have to press hard enough. Yes, I went to the doctor, the doctors told me that it's not appendicitis and that they don't know what I have. I saw several different doctors.

Thank you for the information, I am sorry for the delay in my response, I had not seen the notification!
I spoke to a fellow doctor. Pressing hard enough on any area of the abdomen or chest can cause discomfort without necessarily indicating a problem, especially since you have already had a medical evaluation ruling out a problem.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, Pharmacist

So I should stop pressing the area when it hurts and it will just go away?

If you only have pain when you press, stopping touching it is definitely worth a try.
