What Causes Abdominal Soreness After Lifting Heavy Objects?
Hi. I have been lifting heavy objects all day, but as i lifted the last object i felt a pop in the right side of my stomach. It was followed by a liquid like sensation in that area. It has been about 3 hours now and my stomach is sore and slightly tender. Can you give me a hypothesis on what you believe may have happend? And wether or not i should go to the er?
From your description, it looks as if you have sprained your abdominal muscle. You will require some ice fomentation on the area and absolute bed rest for a weeks period.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
