I keep having severe cramping when I do situps. It feels like my stomach is tied in knots. I have to stop and press on the areas to make it stop hurting. Sometimes I have a hard time breathing during this. I just started exercising 2 weeks ago. I am overweight and trying to get fit.
Hi. Thanks for your query and elucidate history. There has to an internal problem like enteritis or inflammation of any internal organ, that you are getting this. You have to undergo a proper clinical examination to be done by a Doctor who can catch many of the problems on your proper history and physical examination and can then guide for further investigations and treatment. Go for ultrasonography/ CT scan of the abdomen.Also, you have to take an opinion of how to reduce weight. Stop exercises till you get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
