burning sensation when I squat

[kevintrangone]

I was hoping you guys could help me.

Two weeks ago I was doing 5x3 squats, and on the last two sets (245# and 255#) I felt this burning sensation in my lower abdominal area. It feels close to the skin. See the picture I attached for the location.



I only feel it at the very bottom of my squat and during the drive out. Does anyone have an idea as to what is actually injured and what type of injury it is?

Thanks for the help.

Get checked for a hernia.

I made my appointment for this coming Monday.

Are there any particular form faults that could cause this?

You used bad form when choosing your parents.
