Suffered A Fall While Skating, Stomach Pain, No Nausea. Symptoms Cause Of Worry?
I am a figure skater and today I fell down fairly hard on my bottom doing a jump. Before I started doing the jump, I sort of had to go to the bathroom. After taking the fall, I started to get really bad stomach pain, like the stomach pain you get during the stomach flu , except I am not nauseous. Should I go to the doctor or should i just wait to see if it gets better. It does not feel like I damaged anything internally.

Hello,
This can be a muscle pull caused by the fall or stretching awkwardly.
You can apply gentle heat to the area if this still persists for more than a day, you should see a doctor for an examination.
