Question 1

sometimes if i cough or sneeze too hard i get sharp pains in my reproductive organ area.. what could this be?

Accepted Answer

Ligament strain: Likely a ligament strain from the force of the cough but if  your sympotoms  continues seek a healthcare professional to examine you  for more serious disease processes.

Question 2

i fell and landed on my lower left side and my 7 n 8 rib is cracked, lower back bruised, n still feel the pain straight thru, its 4 weeks now n i get sharp pains when i cough or sneeze, behind my left breast? i'm worried thank you?

Accepted Answer

: Pain is likely still due to the fractured ribs, i.e. rib cage pain, it is not over yet. The worst case, splinting reflex from thorax pain may cause atelectasis of the lung which leads to pneumonia; in that case fever will occur besides the pleuritic chest pain. However, I doubt this latter scenario.

Question 3

for the last 2 days when i cough or sneeze i get a sharp pain/pinch in my shoulder... ?

Accepted Answer

Could be...: Without much information or an exam, this could be a number of conditions but given that you say cough and sneezing it could be a pulled muscle or pleurisy.

Question 4

whenever i cough or sneeze i get a sharp pain in my abdomen, is that a bad thing and what is it result of.  thank you?

Accepted Answer

Could be a hernia: when a person coughs or sneezes, there is increased intra-abdominal pressure. If there is a weakening of the tissues, the intestines can start to push through and this is called a Hernia. Could be due to previous surgery in the abdomen or pelvis.  Hernia can be in the groin, or abdomen or umbilical. If there is a hernia, could cause pain. Look for bulging in the abdomen.  See MD for exam

Question 5

i get sharp pain on the left side of my ribcage just below my cleavage for about 15 seconds when i sneeze or cough. should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Usually not: If the pain goes away quickly on its own and no other symptoms are present, would not be worried. Most likely inflammation of the cartilage in the rib cage (medical name costochronditis), Due to old trauma, a violent sneeze, lifting something heavy for example, arthritis in the area, viral infections, fungal infection, very rarely cancer. Try motrin/advil for a couple months, IF persistent, see MD

Question 6

it is painful when i breath in on my left hand side under my lung. when i sneeze or cough i get a sharp pain. what could be the problem?

Accepted Answer

Chest pain:  Unless you have a rib injury, very often such sharp, fleeting chest pains brought on by a deep breath or cough is due to a pinched intercostal nerve or muscle which runs between 2 ribs. These resolve on their own. However if you have a significant cough, pleurisy or pneumonia can also produce sharp chest pain. See your physician if symptoms persist or cough worsens.

Question 7

ive been having some lower right abdominal tenderness, especially to touch. its not like the typical sharp pain with appendicitis. almost like a muscle pull but different. when i cough sneeze or laugh i get a dull sharp pain there. is it appendicit?

Accepted Answer

: Could be.  Time will tell. See local dr is best.

Question 8

with a blister aneurysm ica, when i cough, yell, sneeze, etc i get a sharp pain that throbs for a few seconds with my pulse. is it related?

Accepted Answer

Maybe ...: Where is your pain?  If its a headache it is more likely that you are just aware that internal body pressure changes cause headaches, but its possible that the aneurysm is causing headache.  Talk to your neurologist.

Question 9

i think i have a pulled torn shoulder  muscle.my left shoulder hurts when i bend over, when i cough i get a deep sharp pain, sneeze, and laugh too. ?

Accepted Answer

Rotator cuff tear: you could have a rotator cuff tear. You need to see your physician and see a orthopedic surgeon or rheumatologist to help make the diagnosis

Question 10

a sharp pain on my right side hip bone (right next to tailbone). worse when laying down and sneeze/cough. why? also get tingling in right leg 1 toe.

Accepted Answer

Likely nerve related: Low back/hip pain can radiate to the foot due to a nerve compression, entrapment or injury. L4/L5 is a very common area that can also give tingling and nerve sensations on the top of the big toe due to L5.  Proper diagnosis and treatment options by a Specialist in person are essential for correct healing and preventing further damages.
