Is It Normal To Have Sharp Abdominal Pain, Nausea, Diarrhea When Undergoing Intense Weight Training Or Is It Something Else?

Hi, I'm 28 and have been engaged in weight training for the last 5 years, I've been having sharp abdominal pains and lower down toward the groin/anal area also, accompanied by nausea and diarrhea, not only after the workout, but at times I've needed months off my training. It seems to coincide with when I am training intensely, is this common because of overworked abs/abdominal pressure from training, or could there be an underlying problem? thankyou

Hi.
Pain , nausea and diarrhea is a triad suggesting of an internal problem.
This may not be due to overworked abs / abdominal pressure.
You need to see a Gastro Specialist undergo a course of antibiotics and supportive medicines and if no relief can go further for investigations to detect the cause.
