The most I lift at work is 20 lbs
The other day I lifted probably 40 but to only move the Box like a meter away. I did have cramping after. But i just took it easy for the rest of the day.
I don't think it's anything to worry about. Girls in the olden days chopped wood with a heavy ax for like hours a day. Well that's what I like to remind myself lol

If the pain went away and you had no bleeding then I wouldn't be too worried. If it worries you tho you can always go into the hospital. It never hurts to be checked
