I Been Doing Pull Ups Lately And This Area Hurts
Question: I been doing pull ups lately and this area hurts when I press on it. O2 is 99 pulse is normal and blood pressure is perfect only pain when pressing on it. I had the sleeve done 3 years ago and had a Haitian hernia repaired.
Could it be a pulled muscle?
Brief Answer:
Probably yes
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome. Yes, your symptoms are suggesting pulled muscle since in case of other issues your pain would not be related to pressure or movement. I suggest to rest for few days, take non steroid painkillers and apply cold compresses. Wish you good health. Regards
