A member asked:

Ripping sensation when i rolloed over in my sleep last night. it was in my lower right abdomen. what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Muscle strain: If it happened when you were twisting or rolling in bed, it could be a muscle strain. If pain is getting progressively worse, or associated with other symptoms like fevers, chills, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, make sure you check it out with your doctor!
