Bowels?: if it clears up after having a bowel movement, or passing gas then it is probably bowel related. to answer this question properly you would need to give more information as to the duration of symptoms, and any other symptoms that happen along with it. if it is trending unfavorably then you should seek medical assistance. I hope you feel better soon.

Muscular strain?: Have you been doing exercises such as crunches? It could be a strained abdominal muscle or it could be something more serious. Please see your primary care physician for an exam if it persists longer than a few days or worsens or is associated with fever, nausea, or vomiting.
