A member asked:

My lower right abdomen hurts when i start running, then stops when i stop running?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Running pain: Sounds like you are getting side stitch pain which some people get when they run. Some are able to run through it by bending the elbow on the same side and pumping your arm up and down. Others have to stop. The thought is that it is caused by increased lactic acid.
