tiene un desgarro muscular en el abdomen/un músculo abdominal desgarrado


Explanation:
El desgarro puede ser leve (pulled muscle), moderado o grave (torn) .

"La distensión muscular se define como un desgarro parcial o completo de la unión miotendinosa. Por tanto las fibras del tejido se rompen y sangran produciendo un hematoma. Se puede clasificar por su gravedad en: desgarros leves (grado1), moderados (grado2), y completos o graves (grado3). Los desgarros musculares se deben a una sobrecarga dinámica; siendo la causa más típica una contracción violenta con estiramiento excesivo simultáneo. Muy frecuentes en deportes con movimiento o acciones explosivas. Su recuperación fisioterápica dura aproximadamente entre una y tres semanas según la gravedad."

http://health.qandas.com/ailments/what-is-a-pulled-muscle.ht...
A pulled muscle, or muscle strain, occurs
when a muscle is suddenly over stretched or twisted, causing a small tear. This most often happens when muscles are not properly warmed up before physical activity.
A pulled muscle can also occur when muscles are over used, or improperly used.
http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desgarro_muscular
Sucede por una elongación (estirar un músculo más allá de su capacidad de estiramiento), o por una contracción (ante un esfuerzo superior a la capacidad biológica de resistencia a la tensión), sin el debido calentamiento que lo previene aunque no anula su ocurrencia.
