Here is a diagram of the nerves in the area you mention:

You can enlarge this image with control + mouse wheel.

The nerves are in yellow, and if you look at the emergence of them from the abdomen, you can see a strain or stricture may compress them.

I'd try some ice there if you have strained something doing your job or exercise. As we get older, tissues get less elastic and a strain happens more easily.
