The cutaneous lesion may be very faint and may be more pronounced when the patient performs a Valsalva maneuver which increases abdominal pressure and causes preferential filling of the cutaneous angioma.

Upon inspiration, this sling would constrict the esophagus, forming an functional ( not anatomical ) sphincter that prevents stomach contents from refluxing up the esophagus when intra-abdominal pressure rises during inspiration.
23.
Some researchers have argued that the generation of intra-abdominal pressure, caused by the activation of the core muscles and especially the transversus abdominis, may serve to lend support to the lumbar spine.

Causes of increased pressure may be constipation leading to the need to strain, raised inter-abdominal pressure during later pregnancy or increased weight . . talk ) 08 : 35, 29 December 2014 ( UTC)

The diaphragm is also involved in non-respiratory functions, helping to expel vomit, feces, and urine from the body by increasing intra-abdominal pressure, and preventing acid reflux by exerting pressure on the esophagus as it passes through the esophageal hiatus.

:: : And of course, the velocity would vary significantly based on the abdominal pressure being exerted and the degree of sphincter constriction ( like your breath velocity depends on your diaphragmatic compression and how open your lips are ) . alteripse 19 : 25, 12 November 2005 ( UTC)

Once the voluntary signal to defecate is sent back from the brain, the abdominal muscles contract ( straining ) causing the intra-abdominal pressure to increase . the pelvic floor is lowered causing the anorectal angle to straighten out from ~ 90 o to o and the external anal sphincter relaxes.

Stuart McGill adds that the mechanism of building " high levels of intra-abdominal pressure ( IAP ) . . . produced by breath holding using the Valsava maneuver ", to " ensure spine stiffness and stability during these extraordinary demands ", " should be considered only for extreme weight-lifting challenges not for rehabilitation exercise ".

The whispers to heed include any of the following symptoms that are persistent and unusual to you : pelvic or abdominal pressure, pain, bloating, swelling or discomfort; gastrointestinal upsets like gas, nausea and indigestion; frequent or urgent urination in absence of an infection; unexplained changes in bowel habits; unexplained weight loss or gain; pain during intercourse, continuing unexplained fatigue or shortness of breath.
