Has anyone had instances where they've been doing something (working out, cough) where all of a sudden you have a severe muscle spasm in your abdominals? I have recently had occurrences where I was doing something and had such sharp pain in my abs that it dropped me to my knees. The muscles beneath are knotted and rock hard... If I wait, it recedes and the muscles relax. I don't think it's a hernia since there doesn't appear to be a protrusion. This also seems to coincide when my colostomy has low to no output. Thoughts?
