What kind of hurt are you talking about? Your stomach mussels are like all your other mussels.. they need a break to repair.  You should only do situps every other day to give them time to rest.  If you are having naseua you should see your doctor.

Anyone help!!!!!!from MD....not a hernia

You need to strengthen your fitness and also your abdominal muscles.
Do some floor exercises and learn to strengthen your abdominal muscles so by that you will reduce the pain by putting less force on the areas you are having pain in the abdomen.
If you are having pain reduce the  no of situps and do on alternate days. By rest the pain will decrease if you do not have any other problem like hernia etc nothin to worry. Take care!
