The area between your chest and legs is the abdomen. There are various reasons for feeling pain in this area, and while some of them are harmless, others can seriously threaten your health.

To better understand the possible consequences of your abdominal pain, the first thing to do is locate the exact area where your pain originates.

About 90% of people are occasionally affected by the common pang known as abdominal pain.

Although you might be scared of the intensity of the pain, that’s not an indicator that the cause is serious, and the other way round.

On the other hand, mild, but long-term abdominal pain might be a sign of a chronic disease that needs to be cured.

If your abdominal pain lasts more than two weeks, regardless of the specific part of your abdomen, you need to visit your doctor to eliminate a more severe diagnosis. Other reasons to consult your doctor should be persistent vomiting and bloat, or blood in your stool.

According to MedlinePlus, abdominal pain is pain felt anywhere between the groin and chest.

Since the abdomen takes a larger area of your body, it is important to determine the exact location of your pain, so that you can easily determine the reason for its occurrence. Once you determine this location on the abdominal map, read its meaning.
