What is "abdomen"?
The abdomen refers to the visible area of the body between the chest and the pelvis. It is commonly known as the "belly" or "stomach" region. The abdomen is covered by the abdominal muscles and is often associated with the presence of body fat. It is a soft and rounded area that can vary in size and shape among individuals. The abdomen serves as a protective layer for the organs within and plays a role in bodily functions such as digestion, respiration, and posture. It is also a common area for tactile sensations, such as touch and pressure, and can be sensitive to stimuli.
