OK one week ago when I was doing some heavy (for me) squats latter in the night my stomach started hurting.
I chalked it up to some bad food and went to bed. Next morning I was in some serious pain basically felt like I had horrible gas but it was all located in my stomach area basically right under the ribs.
That day was my day off lifting so I decided to just cut out anything that might give me gas and figure I would feel better in a few hours.
Nope all day I was in significant pain and found eating to be difficult because I was feeling full all the time
At this point I was getting a little worried but I figure I would wait till the next day to make a trip to the Dr.
The next morning my parents called to talk to me and my father and sister were both feeling a similar in the stomach area pain and they had accounted it to some sort of stomach bug
Since the night I felt ill I had gone out with someone how claimed they had just gotten over the flue I figure this must be what it is, got lots of rest drank my liquids and stayed in
I felt better by about day 4 and felt completely fine by day 5.
Now one week after the original issue I got back to do some squats (again heavy for me) and the pain was back
I’m kind of worried that I might have pulled or injured some muscles in my upper abdomen particularly my diaphragm from the increased internal pressure. Has anyone else had these same symptoms after squatting?
