Why does my lower abdomen feel bruised?

My lower right abdomen feels bruised?

• My lower right abdomen got a little swollen & kinda puffy not too bad/big. But it hurts so bad,when I rub my fingers over it,it feels like that wholeee area is REALLY bruised. I was already at the doctors today they said its not my appendix. So what else could that be? If its ever happened to you please let me know what this bruised pain is? It hurts. =/

• Answer:

  One of the common ways of getting unknown stomach pains is by having pinched muscles in your back. The muscles end up pressing against the nerves for the other body organs as they leave the spine and that makes them act up and go into pain after a while. One of the common problems is the pressure on the nerves to the stomach, that pressure signals the brain you just ate and releases more acid to help in digestion, and with the pressure still there the acid keeps coming. After a while the acid will start eating at the lining of your stomach which becomes very painful. Here is how you can release those muscles to get rid of this pain: Back: (do from a sitting position) Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder and find the muscles next to your spine and firmly press on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. Then reverse your hand positions and do your right side. For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling.
