A member asked:

How would doctors recommend i treat pain on side of stomach when running?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pace yourself: Abdominal cramping may mean you are running too soon after a meal. However if the pain is on your side, it is likely just muscle pain from running. As you train and improve your fitness it should resolve.
