Sounds like a hiatal hernia. Your stomach most likely popped outta place. Trust me see a doctor.

It would be a hiatal hernia. Its different than a regular hernia. With a hiatal hernia your stomach pulls up and pops outta place (up under your ribs is most likely where it would go). Whereas with a regular hernia your intestine would pop throgh the abdominal muscle layer.

oic well ill give it a few days to see if it heals, then ill go see a doc, plus i lifted today and it was ok i just rapped my ribs with some prerap and tape and i was fine, we will see

[catabolic kid]

ah man hernias scare me..check that out

They scare me too....never thought about them until my training partner got one and he has not been in the gym in 4 months and couting. He has lost about 30 pounds and I cannot imagine how deprssed he is. Once you get one, you will never be able to lift hard again...sucks

[mknpp9]

thanks bud dont scare me to much.................who says that honestly, if i couldnt lift id rather die
