not sure: People often feel tight when they have gas so i guess that's a possibility. Other things could be something else, possibly a hernia? Feel any lumps or bumps on your lower abdomen?
Get it checked out by your doctor.

Something you ate: There are a number of causes of bloating, gas production and "tightness" in your abdomen. And yes, it can be very uncomfortable. I recommend evaluating certain foods in your diet, starting with dairy. Something as simple as lactose intolerance can cause these symptoms. Remember, not all dairy food can cause gas and bloating. If your symptoms persist, see your physician.
