A member asked:

Why does my upper abdomen hurt bad when i cough and my lower abdomen has a crampy feeling?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Coughing effects: If you cough a lot, your abdominal muscles get a workout like exercising, and they can get pretty sore. Not sure why you would have crampy lower abdominal pain, though, unless you have different issues in that area, like, for example a woman with endometriosis or an ovarian cyst might have. Best to see your doctor if this goes on more than a couple of days, or seems to keep getting worse.
