I don't know about anyone else, but if someone pushes even lightly on my lower abdomen, I'll bite them!! (just kidding) Pushing on my lower abdomen really hurts.

I am now using a doctor who does deep abdomen nerve blocks. I could be blocked but I wouldn't know it except for the nausea, swelling and failure to go to the bathroom. These are not the surface nerve blocks. You will need sedation to do these. There is only one doctor here in the north Texas area that I know of who does these. 3 other doctors told me it couldn't be done.

But back on the subject, if massage helps you, go for it. I just can't stand anyone pushing on me.
