Why is my tummy hurting after running?

Lately my tummy just under my belly button has been hurting after running. It kind of feels like period-pain but it’s not. :( ?

Answer #1

You could be straining your lower stomach muscles…this happened with my sister after she continuously ran everyday. You could have cramp i looked it up and it said:

  1. Dehydration. – For your smooth muscles of the stomach/intestines to function properly they require to be hydrated.
  2. Low blood salt – With all the sweating taking place your body will be losing too much salt and your body will soon be starved of salt.
  3. Inadequate oxygenation – During running, a lot of your blood will be redirected from the stomach to other muscle. And since your stomach muscles are starved of oxygen they will not work properly. heres the link if you want a look :) http://funadvice.com/r/bh0vsmbh1oc
