<human>: I have a sharp pin in my lower abdomen if I cough whilst laying down, or if I stand from a sitting position quickly? I ve had this come and go for years, I thought it was when I was ovulating, however it seems to be quite prominent for the last 2 weeks? Also, not sure if this is related, However when I squeeze my buttocks together (I m a professional dancer so this could be a separate injury I have picked up) I get a deep sharp pain in my right hip? Both pains are equally sharp and about a level 8. Can you give me any idea?
<bot>: Hi. Thanks for your query. Sharp pain in the lower abdomen on coughing or standing is indicative of nerve entrapment or nerve stretching due to hernia. You are a professional dancer hence this is possible. Secondly squeezing buttocks causing deep sharp pain in the right hip is suggestive of again a neurological problem. I would suggest you to get a physical test done by a Surgeon for both and get MRI of the spine, and hip to rule out any primary problems.
