Question 1

how come i get cramps in my lower abdomen when my tampon is full?

Accepted Answer

Swelling: When your tampon is full, the vagina (which is made of elastic tissue) is stretching and the stretch receptors in the vagina can cause cramping and an achy type of pain.  While this is common, it is annoying.  There's no harm that you're doing, rather it's just a sign that you need to change the tampon.  Hope that helps!

Question 2

pressing on my lower abdomen  when my bladder is full, feels really good. what's the reason behind this and is it bad to do that?

Accepted Answer

No and no: This is a weird thing to do.There is no reason and it is not bad. Don't push too hard.

Question 3

my 40lb child jumped full force on my lower abdomen and it hurts. i have a history of blood clot. should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

: No, most people will feel the same and that has nothing to do with a history of DVT.

Question 4

i think i'm preggo not for sure but i'm having some heavy fullness and cramping in my lower abdomen is that normal? is that a sign of my cycle

Accepted Answer

Time will tell: These symptoms can fit many conditions from pregnancy, pregnancy menstrual, gastrointestinal to urinary conditions.  Do a pregnancy test and if negative then repeat in 1 week.  Follow up with a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

Question 5

i have a pain in my lower abdomen, very close to my groin. it usually hurts when my bladder is full or i have an erection. not had sex 4 lyk 2 yrs.

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: You could start with a pcp or go directly to a urologist.  But you need to be examined in order to even begin to establish a diagnosis.  Good luck.

Question 6

hi, i have a constant extended lower abdomen. i constantly feel the need to urinate and a general fullness. i have recently started experiencing sharp shooting pains in my pelvic area, they are sharp and inconsistent, and last a few seconds. ?

Accepted Answer

URINARY INFECTION: Likely you have a urinay infection(bladder), could be other things too but start with that

Question 7

should i b worried if i have pain in lower abdomen, feeling of fullness, and mucous in stool?

Accepted Answer

Yes: It could be partial obstruction you need to have this evaluated.

Question 8

i keep getting hardness and swelling in my lower abdomen, i'm not gassy or constipated, it often feels like i'm really full, any ideas?

Accepted Answer

Many possibilities: Possibilities are from nothing to things like a full bladder if you retain urine, large uterus, fluid in abdominal wall or inside. Bloating is nonspecific and makes me think of gastritis which could make your stomach feel full, make you burpy and have indigestion. Some problems in small intestine could also cause bloating. As you can see,  you need a good consultation with a doctor.

Question 9

i had severe intestinal cramps several days ago. the cramping stopped, but i still have a feeling of fullness in my lower abdomen, as well as pain

Accepted Answer

Bowel movement?: Have you had any bowel movement since then?  If not, this may be the reason . However if the fullness and pain persist for more than a week, you should check with your doctor.

Question 10

severe pelvic pain when bladder is full . right side pelvic bulge. abdomen swelling, bloated. right side lower abdomen bigger than left. painfulmenses?

Accepted Answer

Needs evaluation: While I can speculate on potential causes of these symptoms, you need some serious, specific answers.  That means a thorough examination plus some X-ray studies to define the problem. Start by calling your physician or gynecologist today to make an appointment to get started.
