Abdominal muscle strains usually cause immediate pain in the area of the injured muscle. It can be hard to flex the muscle because of this pain. The other common symptom is muscle spasm of the injured muscle. Less commonly, swelling and brusing can result from the muscle injury. Abdominal muscle strains are graded according to the severity of the injury: Grade I (Mild): Mild discomfort, often no disability. Usually does not limit activity. Grade II (Moderate): Moderate discomfort, can limit ability to perform activities such as crunches or twisting movements. Grade III (Severe): Severe injury that can cause pain with normal activities. Often patients complain of muscle spasm and bruising. I am now at Grade II. Have to so something. :(
