A member asked:
Does forceful pushing on abdominal cause aortic aneurysm or rupture?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is unlikely that: you could generate sufficient pressure on your abdomen to do yourself any harm. Even if you already had a large aneurysm present it would be unlikely you could cause a rupture with abdominal pressure.
