What Causes Abdominal Pain After Doing Stretching Exercises?
i was doing a stretch where my left hand was on my thigh and my right hand was in the air and I'm leaning left. i got a spasm in my left side so i stood straight up and when i did the left lower side of my belly button started hurting.Could this be a hernia or just a pulled stomach muscle?
Probably, it is strain of stomach muscles. Take Rest for few days, apply ice, use compression, and use painkillers. Don’t worry, you will recover soon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
