What should I do if I experience abdominal pain while running?

Abdominal pain during long-distance running will affect your running state and reduce the effect of exercise. The general reasons for this phenomenon are: insufficient warm-up, exercise immediately after a meal or drinking water, disordered breathing rhythm, chronic diseases or psychological factors.

There are two solutions. First, slow down your exercise speed, deepen your breathing, and adjust your breathing rhythm. Second, press the painful area with your hands, and the symptoms will be relieved or disappear in a short time. If the abdominal pain still does not subside, you should temporarily stop exercising. If it is serious, you need to consult a doctor for examination and treatment.

How to prevent abdominal pain? The strategy is as follows: do adequate warm-up exercises, avoid strenuous exercise after meals, master the depth and rhythm of breathing, and determine the intensity of exercise according to personal actual situation.
