Hey guys after a hard ab workout Ive been sore for 5 days now and when I say sore I mean days 2 and 3 I could hardly sleep or stand upright noticed swelling in lower abs yesterday just above belly button all the way down to my balls anyone ever experience this????
daaamn, i've never came across such injuery, check a Dr.
You might wanna take it easy on the "crazy" ab workout. Swelling is okay the day that you workout, but there should be no sign of swelling after that. I would go see a doctor...
soreness seems to be almost better but swelling still present
First question would be how long had it been since you had done abs before this workout? Next did you incorporate alot of new exercises, I have done this before and was sore for a solid 7 days but it was all good, just really strained my obliques.
yea i hit a few knew things just for lower abs thats why i havent been to doc yet goin monday if no improvement, guess thats what i get for slowing down in the gym all summer
dude I would not worry about it that bad, you said the magic words "took off for summer", that will get you everytime, but if you do not see improvement definitly go to the doc, good luck
By swelling, to you mean a muscle pump (the muscle in engorged with blood)?Quote:

when i tore my tricep the doctor told me that if i had and swelling at all with tenderness that it was torn, or any swelling at all for that matter. Even a small tear can make a golfball lump. Dont do abs for awhile. Dont deadlift or squat either. Doing such things with your abs in a weekend state could be asking for a hernia. In fact, your might have a hernia. I would take a week off or 2 from everything then start back slow.
Thats what i would do.
maybe u got a hernia
possible but i doubt it. any news on your progress?? diagnosis?Quote:

This will help with the inflammation....also, I agree with DrS...do the ice therapy and NEVER heat it! As for the hernia question...possible....does the swelling change if you're laying down or standing? What if you're standing and bear down? Does the swollen area change at all?Quote:
