There is nothing in particular about eggs that would cause pain compared to other foods. Egg allergy is a possible explanation but pain alone is not consistent with an allergic reaction. I would expect to see more allergic type symptoms such as rash, hives, perioral tingling, swelling, wheezing, etc. if you had an egg allergy. Best to visit with a primary care doctor or GI specialist to explore this problem further.
