I ran on the treadmill for approx 15minutes, did a few ab workouts and layed on the floor for a few minutes, when I got up I was doubled over from the pain in my stomach. It is like a knife in my lower right rib: high abdomin. What is happening? Appendicitis maybe?
Hi. Abdominal work-outs can fracture a rib as almost all muscles of abdomen originate from ribs above. Fracture ribs can ouch and tear the nerves which are attached to its lower border, causing typical stabbing pain. I would advise you to lie down and take slow breaths. Do not move, visit ER, go for x-rays and follow the management
