Abdominal pain only when stomach muscles are being used; what could it be?

Linzg1b1
I recently had CT and have confirmed diastasis recti, doctor said stomach muscles are extremely thin. I also have very small umbilical hernia. Doctor doesn't think pain is associated with either and is sending me to GI specialist to check gallbladder. Is the gallbladder probably the cause even though pain is only when stomach muscles are used or is it something else and if so what could it be?
