Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i was doing some manual handling in a drinks fridge yesterday, pushing up on a weighted shelf trying to adjust its height.When i stood up after doing this i felt a cramp like pain in my stomach around my belly button, this lasted for around 15 minutes and felt better when i pushed onto it.I awoke this morning with the area feeling like dull ache with no real pain unless i push on my belly button.This is not the first time i have had the dull ache but the first time i have had some real pain in that area.Thoughts?
thank you user for your query. As per your complaints its seems to me muscle spasm. As you were doing heavy works while bending. All you can do is try taking any muscle relaxant( chlorzoxazone) twice daily and wait for a day or two.Avoid doing heavy works and forward bending. If at all your pain won't reduces then you can consult any physician. god bless
