ok so ive started running here recently, and ive been getting stitches in my side like crazy lately! I stop n let them go away, and try again a lil later and they come back hard. Is there anyway to get rid of that or help it go away?

Thanx in advance :)

    When you get one, try pushing in on the area that hurts with your hand and exhale forcefully. It really helps me!

    What you've got is the dreaded side stitch, which has been the plague every runner. Luckily it's only a temporary problem, the best thing is to do slow down while running and take deep breaths. Be patient, they will go away.
