A member asked:

I had severe vomiting approx 36-48 hours ago, and am now experiencing severe abdominal pain when i cough. could the two be related?

Dr. Corey Clay answered

Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Could be: Vomiting requires forceful contractions and can irritate/inflame muscles and connective tissue in the abdomen and chest wall. Coughing can similarly irritate and already inflamed area thereby reproducing the pain.
