How To Treat The Nausea Feeling Caused After A Hit In The Upper Abdomen?

I was playing ice hockey this weekend and had the top of my stick get jammed into my upper abdomen right under my chest bone. It has been extremely tender to the touch and I have been experiencing some nausea and discomfort but it has been mild. I also have anxiety so don t know if the nausea is more related to that. What potential problems could I be having with my stomach? Should I go get it looked at? Could i continue to play this week?

Hi if it is more tender then get USG abdomen and chest xray AP view to ruleout any internal injury or fracture bone.

Nausea will reduce in time if no internal injury. Take anti emetics and a NSAID with muscle relaxants. This will help you for pain.

Hope this helps you.
