Lower Abdominal Pain, Hurts To Cough, Walk, Or Sneeze. Cause?
Lower middle abdonmen pain, initially I thought it was just soreness from doing these new sit-ups but no one else who I was working out with experienced anything similar to this. I m a dancer and whenever I had to do something that involved strength in my abdonmen I d feel a sharp pain there. Thinking that it was only a sore muscle, I continued to do the counts and what not. That made it worst! Now it hurts to cough , walk, sneeze or really do anything. Is this something to be concerned about? Any ideas on what the cause of this may be?

Hi
Your description is highly suggestive of muscle injury - a few fibres might have given way?
When there is pain, rest the part / give cold compress / take Over-The-Counter pain reliever with or without muscle relaxant - for a day or two.
If there is any doubt, you must see a doctor.
If there is no improvement / if there is fever, vomiting, bladder or bowel symptoms - you must go to the doctor immediately
Good luck
Wish you speedy recovery
