Abdominal Tendinopathy - Causes and Treatment, Including Exercises

I’m trying to determine if I have a hernia or severely torn abdomen muscle. I’ve had it for months. I’ve been to 2 doctors for a hernia check and neither really feels one. Is the muscle issue you are referencing possible to have for months and months?

I think i have this, when i sprint my lower abdomen feels like being injected by needles and sneezing is painful, my left groin psoas pains when i run too fast...

Thank you!!!

I finally found what I have been looking for. Thank you so much

Perfect for my case, many thanks 🙏

This is a superb exposition of the problem and the remedy. Thanks so much. 👍😀

Same injury. Going on 4 months now

I find that I’m kinda ok with running… the pubic bone area and adductors kinda ache if I do pro longed inclines. Say level 10 incline. Speed of 5-5.5 for 30 minutes or so. Why would incline walking cause a flare up? Tightness? Thanks

Can You get it from coughing for two weeks?

Thanks. Pretty sure this is what I have from playing basketball as a fast shifty guard. Sucks its tough to cure.

proffesional and simple explained,thank you doctor.

Thank you soooooo much, i didn't know what was wrong. I'm so happy😊
😊😊

Me encanta cómo explicas las dolencias. Creo que lo que yo tengo tiene que ver más con el abductor.

I do not understand why I developed this as a runner when I’ve been on top of my planking for years - made it to 15 min plank at one point - but last year at least 5 min plank x3 weekly and side planks (90 secs) also x 3 weekly… 🤷‍♂️

Thank you!! This, by far, is the best explanation of this issue! Many thanks from a long-term, long - distance runner! 🏃🏻‍♂️💨💨💨

Got it from weight training. 😢

I'm glad she mentioned child birth. This is the only thing that I can think that caused my pain. I also have a broken tail bone and sciatica nerve pain. I could not walk for months and bedridden. I had a total hysterectomy since the uterus is a muscle. This helped alot but I still have pain on my left side and I can tell stress makes it worse. I have had the muscles on the left side numbed, not sure what this procedure is but it included a long needle. This helped but didn't last. Hope some gets some help from my comment.

Does this injury cause gas in your tummy?

I tore my groin tendon near the pelvis pretty bad. After 8 weeks off Ju-jitsu training I’m now getting growing pain in my lower stomach. This video has diagnosed me. Looks like I need to rest for awhile.

Funny hoe you only mention Sports injuries.
Shows how undervalued physical work is.

I need more videos about this condition please

Thanks for making me see how abdominal groin treatment is❤❤❤ nice video

Omg. She described exactly what is happening with me. Thanks so much for this video. Congrats from Brazil!!!

That is really useful

I believe I have developed a abdominal tendonpathy on my right side. Around 3 months ago I had an MRI which diagnosed Osteitis Pubis in my left side. I was referred for an injection which someone helped. But very soon after getting back into exercise I had pain in my right abs. It has stopped the progress of the OP and left me back at a stage of no running.

I love your videos but was wondering with these kinds of basic exercises, is there a length of time you would do them for ? For example do them 2/3 times for a week and then increase the time of the isometrics every week. Once the area is pain free from 3x1 minute, then move onto the crunches etc progressing each week.

Appreciate the help :)

great!

Every other day do the following: Knee plank 3 x 45-60 seconds, Modified Hollow hold 3 x 30-60 seconds, Anti-Rotation Plank level1 3 x 30 - 60 seconds. The key is to do static holds isolating the abdominals, I would also ice for 20 minutes twice a day and supplemented with a protein shake once a day to aid muscle recovery.

I had 6 months of pain, multiple doctor and physio appointments with no help. I found this video which helped me diagnose myself and then I did the the above exercises which gave me huge improvements in just 2 weeks. I wish anyone else suffering a speedy recovery.

I over stretched playing football and ended up with a grion pain, that hurt in my testicles, my abs, straight across the line of my hip crest, and the base of my glutes. It's such an annoying feeling. I actually feel like I have a bulge that I'm sitting on

Fantastic video. I think the ab tend is a correct diagnosis for me. Pain in crease when I sneeze and it probably happened playing ice hockey. I can do the first two exercises. The 3rd one creates a little pain to the right of my belly button. My pain in general is from right crease and up to right of belly button. I hiked today - couldn’t resist - won’t play hockey tonight. Biking causes minor, minor discomfort- practically nothing. I take a break from your exercises tomorrow. Thanks again and let me know if you think I can benefit from a one on one. I hope to play ice hockey next week - will have been about 3 week break I think.

First time hearing about this! Thank you for sharing your knowledge i needed this

Can that cause pain on the testicle and, moment of the,plzzz answer

Hi!
Do you think this problem apply to my situation who work as solo cleaner, works for 12 hours a day. I don’t have the pain every day however, it’s bothersome bc i’m post menopausal and I feel like I’m about to have period sensation. Thank you in advance.

Thank you!

I have been suffering for decades from a severe pain every time I try to work out my abs.I tried everything and gave up because nothing made any difference until I saw this video.
I can't thank you enough.

So I’m wondering if this is what has happened to me. I was on the leg press and failed the last rep. When the weight came down it felt like somthing had tore open in my hip flexor area/ pubic area. But there is no pain in the hip flexor area. I feel it in my lower abdomen. Specifically when I try to do a side lunge. I don’t want to self diagnose myself but this seems like it is it. Idk what I need to do.

Thank you. I finally figured out what is causing my lower abdomen pain. Couldn’t get out of bed without rolling to side. Painful when running and jumping.

Really usefull video for my issue. Many thanks for this, I'll take on board the advice for rehab.

What if it doesn’t hurt anymore but abs not working at all

I'm 66 and started race walking technique a few months ago. It's called the wiggle walk for a reason - you're raising each hip to put one foot in front of the other in a straight line. That's a type of twisting move, no? About 2-3 months after I started practicing this technique, my lower abs started getting so painful, yet I tried to push through with regular power walking and jogging. Bad idea. Any forward motion causes pain, so I can't take my regular walks for a while. It's funny, because I can do calisthenics and aerobic dance moves at home and I can use the stair master at the gym with no pain whatsoever. But as soon as I start walking fast, my lower abs start hurting. I tried the exercises shown here, but they aggravated the pain and made it worse. I really did a number on myself, creating a lot of inflammation. I've abstained from walking & jogging for about 4 weeks now and I really want this to resolve permanently.

How can you tell if you have osteitis pubis vs abdominal tendinopathy? Can you run with it if the pain is mild? Or will this make it worse? It’s mild if I run really slow. Thank you

Thank you, very helpful.

I think I have this. Even when I sneeze it hurts my genitals. I can’t run or jump. I thought I pulled a groin but it hurts all the way to my lower abs.

Geez. This is so accurate. Getting out of bed, coughing, laughing all were crazy painful, running was not even an option. Switching to bike yelped a lot to keep moving. Hockey injury btw

I have been suffering from the said strain for 3 months, basically going to play football and got pain when going under sit up, but l am not cured yet now, the video is abosutely right for me what happened to me, see it how effective it would be for me , thank you.

Awesome stuff!

Can i still run or it would make it worse?

I have developed this pain, in exactly the spot you indicate, after introducing some new stretches to my exercise programme. It has stopped my golf and I'm desperate to get it fixed ASAP. Thanks for this.

Thank you so much!

Hello! After viewing your video, I am sure that I have this condition. I am a beginner pickleball player. Your video described my exact symptoms. I will seek medical attention. ASAP. Thanks.
