It hurts my chest and side when I run?

Question

When I run.. my side almost automatically starts burning. I have heard that can happen if your not in shape but I'm pretty skinny. I guess I can still be out of shape. =p My chest sometimes hurts too but I dont have asthma. The thing is I love to run. My boyfriend says to keep running and eventually it will wear off. idk.

Answer 1

ur prolly just outta shape keep on running and it wont be a problem

Answer 2

Some people get pain in their side if they eat just prior to running so watch for that. Chest pain is another matter, it may be nothing but it wouldn't hurt to have it checked out by a doctor.

Answer 3

First off, if you are drinking pops stop...some people get side stitches if they drink them, i do...others don't........but if you aren't drinking pops try to stretch and work through it but if the pain gets worse i would go to the doctor........also about the breathing you could be getting a type of asthma i can't remember what it's called but athletes sometimes get it, then agian it could be nothing..........good luck!!!!.......hope this helped atleast a little bit........

Answer 4

means u ate too much for ur previous meal.  T.T happened to me during first semester.  i was outta shape but now it duznt happen

Answer 5

Being skinny has no bearing on how "in shape" you are. Your muscles are probably just tired and your cardiovascular system is out of shape. Continuing running reasonable mileage will straighten these and the pains should go away, or at least occur less.

Answer 6

I used to have the same problem...

It was just because i was out of shape.

Keep running, you need to build up your stamina.

I love to run too, but i know it feels to have that aching burning pain as well. Its not fun.  =[

Good luck!
