Can you have a trapped nerve in your belly?

Yes, you can have a trapped nerve in your belly, though it's less common than in other areas like the neck or back. When a nerve in the abdominal region is compressed or irritated, it can cause pain, tingling, or discomfort in the abdomen. This can be due to various factors, such as hernias, inflammation, or muscle strain.
