A member asked:

Woke up a day ago with solar plexus cramping felt like runners stitch. doesnt really hurt to press , flares up when standing and walking. there is some light tightness in my back. 34yr old, healthy, no medical history, exercise daily. is it pulled?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This discomfort may well be due to abdominal muscular strain, but if you can't pinpoint it to muscle and if you develop persistent upper abdominal pain&tenderness, get checked for gastritis, pancreatitis, or peptic ulcer.. Back discomfort could be muscular also but can occur with the other disorders.
