What causes me to get a cramp up high towards my rib cage when i run?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscle use/overuse: Many muscles are involved with running and breathing. Muscles cramp when over used and become sore and tender. If this releives when your stop and rest, one would think not a problem. Persistence means one should get checked out.
