Can Abdominal Trauma Cause Ulcer Pain And Internal Injuries?

I am 34 year old woman and in good physical shape. Two days ago I told a 13 year old boy that he could punch me in the stomach as hard as he could. I honestly figured I could take it, I could not. It was a strong blow to my stomach, right below my rib bone. I have an ulcer and am experiencing severe pain where I was hit. Could there be anything wrong internally?

yes there can be. you should not allow people to harm you for fun. likely it is bruising and musculoskeletal pain related to being hit. but avoid ibuprofen due to your known ulcer. if you vomit blood, are unable to eat or keep food down, experience bloody stools, seek medical care. And please don't allow people to hit you.
