Brief Answer:
Most likley a strain!

Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this pain and all the inconveniences this might have caused you. I have reviewed your information fully and it is suggestive of a possible strain. Given the mechanical nature of this pain especially when muscles are contracted like during sneezing, sitting up, etc, it relate to a muscle injury. I will recommend that you take some rest and also add tylenol/Ibuprofen to your treatment regimen. This way, the pain would be addressed while you gain time and recover.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
