Does Pain In Stomach When Stretching While Being On Prozac Be Pulled Muscle?

Hi I m a 15 year old girl. I m really out of shape. I ve been laying around for months now. I suffer from anxiety and depression. I m starting to be more active again and on Fourth of July I think I pulled a muscle in my stomach. It s on the right side and it onlys hurts when I stretch or lay down. It doesn t bother me if I m not thinking about it. The pain isn t intense but it s just annoying more than anything. I started taking prozac two weeks ago. Any idea what s going on? Also when I press down on my stomach it doesn t hurt and it s not swollen or anything.

hi,

sometimes the depression drugs makes the muscle little weak by decreasing the signaling from the brain. what you need to do is. try doing slowly stretching and then do deep breathing exercises while placing the hand onto the affected area which will provide it a good strength. slowly progress to core strengthening exercises and it will surely provide you relief out of pain even while you do intense stretching.

I wish you recover soon.

thank you
