What Causes Burning Pain In Lower Abdomen?
I was working out last week and felt a tearing and burning pain in my lower abdomen just above my old C-section scar. Had some burning sensation over the weekend but today during my workout, I attempted to do crunches and the burning pain was so bad I couldn t move. My lower abdomen is tender to touch and I get that burning pain when I push. Is this just normal muscle strain or could it be something more serious? I also had the burning pain while sneezing.

Hi.
This can be a bit of a serious problem.
Probable diagnoses are :
The nerves trapped in the scar got stretched .
Or- there is beginning of the incisional hernia.
Get this checked by a Surgeon and also get an high resolution ultrasonography for the abdominal wall...
