An intestinal obstruction or pancreatitis can cause pain in the middle of the stomach, according to the Mayo Clinic. Other causes include a blood clot or appendicitis.
Upper middle abdominal pain can also be caused by hepatitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease or a heart attack. Lower middle abdominal pain can caused by ovarian cysts or endometriosis. Only a doctor can diagnose pain in the stomach accurately. Some causes of pain are more serious than others. If a person experiences a fever, vomiting, an inability to pass stools or failure to keep foods down, they should contact a doctor as soon as possible. If a person vomits blood or has trouble breathing, they should contact emergency help.
