A member asked:
I have respiratory virus with cough. what causes sudden contraction in abdominal muscle followed by coughing -- when i am trying to get to sleep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That is normal: That is normal with coughing as you move your diaphragm and that does involve the abdominal muscles itself in the act of coughing
