What Causes Left Sided Sharp Abdominal Pain During Exercising?
i had a hysterectomy in 2007. They left my ovaries. When I do certain sit-up exercises I feel pinching pain on the left side where my ovaries are. The pinching pain is only when doing those certain exercises and I never feel it any other time. I just began working out so I wasn t sure if it was just because my body was not use to this new life change. Thoughts? Thanks!
The symptoms can be relate to a strained muscle due to exercise. This is based on the fact that the pinching pain is only when you exercise. I suggest to do an abdominal ultrasound to exclude other issues. Meanwhile,I suggest to use anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen in case of pain.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
