pain triggered by jarring movements

Knowing The Red Flags for Appendicitis: Pain that worsens if you cough, walk or make other jarring movements...

Heel tap sign, also called heel-jar or jar tenderness, is a clinical sign to identify appendicitis. It is found in patients with localized peritonitis.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heel_tap_sign

I don't think there is a classical 1:1 translation, because many tests rely on "jarring tenderness", so that Erschütterungsschmerz is more like a category than a single test. In most cases, tenderness will probably be elicited by a heel drop test or by percussion of the affected area, but you can't tell from the word which test was actually used. It might as well be coughing or a rebound.

Reference:

pain aggravated by motion or cough

this might be a lead, since an "Erschütterung" is always caused by some kind of motion...
