Most diseases originate precisely from the pain syndrome. Painful sensations in the right hypochondrium do not speak of a specific disease, but are considered a common symptom that indicates a number of disorders.
Soreness can also be caused by seemingly harmless things, for example:
- due to excessive physical activity, running, when bending;
- overeating;
- fasting, etc.
However, pain also indicates the presence of:
- inflammatory process of internal organs;
- genitourinary system;
- digestive system;
- biliary tract systems.
Why does it hurt in the right upper quadrant while running?
With the natural and normal functioning of all organs, blood circulation is at a normal pace. With an increase in the load, the exchange process becomes more active, while the blood reserve is in the chest cavity and peritoneum.
As soon as the body is exposed to stress, blood circulation increases, nourishing the muscles. The spleen and liver increase due to the active consumption of blood, as a result, pressure is applied to the membrane of the organs and their nerve endings, which causes discomfort.
Running is a versatile and favorite way to stay physically active. Many professional and amateur runners report tenderness under the right rib.
As a rule, such a symptom manifests itself in the absence of chronic diseases, with incorrect distribution of the load, incorrect breathing technique.
Weak endurance
It is characteristic of people who are physically underdeveloped or with low physical activity.
At the same time, forces are taken away and such factors as:
- stress;
- illness;
- surgical interventions;
- trauma.
In order for the body to perceive the load, it is necessary to establish a training system - they must be systematic and introduced gradually.
Wrong breathing
Breathing is key to quality training, regardless of the type. In running, breathing is the basis, as it saturates the entire body with oxygen, allows you to maintain muscle mass, and reduce body fat.
Correct breathing enables runners to cover long distances without feeling tired. As soon as the rhythm breaks down, pain appears in the upper abdomen. Incorrect breathing is breathing in which the rhythm is quickened or absent. Can be done by mouth.
It is worth thinking about physiology - when running in an accelerated mode, the lungs work, providing gas exchange in the body. Its violation leads to the fact that the diaphragm does not receive enough oxygen, and this develops a spasm of the diaphragmatic muscles.
The spasm blocks the flow of blood in the required amount to the heart, blocking it in the liver. The liver capsule, as a result, fills with blood and begins to press on the nerve endings of the internal organs.
Wrong food intake
Before any activity, you need to follow small rules - prepare. Create favorable conditions. One of them is taking light food, which will facilitate its timely digestion, and, accordingly, the normal functioning of all body systems.
In case of non-observance of food intake, receiving a large amount of food, the stomach is enlarged in volume and is busy fermenting products in it. It involves the liver in the work, expanding its vessels with blood.
The heavier the food, the more strength is needed from all organs to process it. Accordingly, the liver overflows with blood and provokes pain.
Alcohol abuse
Any physical activity is prohibited under the influence of alcohol. The body affected by alcohol works at the "ultimate speed" - the blood, the liver actively process the alcohol consumed, trying to remove it from the body. Additional load is contraindicated.
Running without warm-up
In the absence of stress, the human body circulates about 70% of the blood. 30% remains in the "depot", that is, in reserve, without replenishing the bloodstream.
This "depot" is the chest cavity, peritoneum, liver and spleen. Active load and each of these organs begins to work at maximum. This mode forces you to pump blood in an enhanced mode, acting on pain receptors.
Spine diseases
If pain occurs in the right side, radiating to the back, it is imperative to consult a specialist, as it indicates the development of pathology. First of all, attention is paid to the liver. Particular attention is paid to this particular organ, if the pain increases with physical exertion.
Possible diseases as causes of sudden pain in the right side from the back:
- development of inflammation of the right kidney or abscess;
- the occurrence of gallstone disease;
- cholecystitis;
- acute appendicitis;
- pleurisy;
- development of pneumonia;
- problems with the spine, it can be osteochondrosis, intervertebral hernia, previous spinal injury;
- spondylosis;
- myocardial infarction.
Internal organ pathologies
Pain in this area can be triggered as a result:
Pathology of the liver or bile ducts. As a rule, with the development of deviations, such pain has a cramping and paroxysmal character. Depending on the severity, its intensity varies.
Moreover, among the ailments there may be:
- hepatitis;
- cirrhosis;
- echinococcosis;
- fatty hepatosis.
Pathology of the digestive system organs, these include:
- pancreatitis;
- gastritis;
- cholecystitis;
- intestinal perforation.
Pathology of the organs of the cardiovascular system.
How to remove pain while running?
Almost everyone has experienced side pain while jogging.
When pain occurs, you must:
- Stop or slow down your pace of movement.
- It is necessary to perform rhythmically deep breaths in and out.
- If, after the restoration of breathing, the pain does not relieve, it is necessary to tighten the abdominal muscle. For example, when inhaling and exhaling, work with the abdominal press, draw in and inflate the stomach.
- A tight belt at the waist minimizes pain.
How to reduce the likelihood of pain while running?
To minimize soreness, it is worth exercising correctly.
First of all:
- You need to do a warm-up. The body will be ready for approaching loads, the blood flow will receive the necessary "acceleration". Warming up the muscles will also become more elastic, which will reduce their injury.
- Before training, do not eat for 2 hours. However, before the workout itself, you can enjoy 1 teaspoon of honey, drink sweet tea 30 minutes before running.
- The load during training should be increased gradually, as its intensity and duration.
- It is important to increase the load as the body gets used to it.
- While running, it is strictly forbidden to speak so as not to disturb the rhythm of breathing.
- Breathing should be uniform, sufficient to enrich the body with oxygen.
- Running should be done on an empty stomach.
It is generally accepted that the pain in the right hypochondrium is fleeting. This is not entirely true. Its appearance is a consequence of disruption of the body. First of all, pressure on the internal organs, on their nerve endings.
Specialists tend to believe that spinal dysfunction also causes pain, as it affects the tension in the diaphragm and adjacent ligaments.
