What Causes Lower Abdominal Discomfort With Pressure?

Hello! So my concern involves lower abdominal discomfort with pressure. I had unprotected sex on June second then missed my period on June 18th, I was under a lot of stress the week leading up to this day and was extremely active, I then took a pregnancy test 1 week later that came up negative. About another week later on June 28th I started my period. I assume my missed period was all of the stress I was under during the time of my period. I am an in shape person with defined muscles on stomach. However when I lay on my back, I push on my lower abdominals and i experience discomfort and it causes discomfort in my chest area. I had been having a gassy stomach last week and that was pretty painful but I thought it was gone. What does this sound like? I m kind of concerned and just want to make sure everything is okay with my body! It does not hurt when I am physical or anything like that, it just hurts with pressure.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms could be due to gastritis or musculoskeletal pain. For that you can take Rabeprazole like antacid for week. You can also take anti inflammatory medication like paracetamol for that.

Hot compress can be applied over abdomen. If no improvement in one week than ultrasonography abdomen should be done for further work up.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
