Sharp Pain In Stomach After Exercise, Out Of Shape. Cause?
When I exercise and do jumping jacks I get sharp pain in my stomach. Its been like this for years now and I have had yearly health exams and to healthy pregnancies during this time. But I am very out of shape I am 5 foot 7 and I weigh 135 lbs. So I don't have much real muscle. I'm just out of shape because it gets tough to do basic exercises without feeling beat after about 5 mins. Are these pains coming from me being out of shape?
Hiatus hernia should be ruled out by evaluation & investigations.Barium meal series may be done.H-2 blockers along with antacids may be taken.Serum Potassium may be done,to rule out hypokalemia.
I am proud that you are doing regular exercise to keep you fit , Basically Exercise causes loss of energy and minerals through skin and pain is due to muscle contraction and relaxation during exercise like jumping , Fat gets burned during exercise and pain indicates your muscles are trying to get firm and fit , Therefore dont panic about abdomen pain , regular exercise will reduce pain in few weeks. Drink plenty of water after exercise and have a balanced diet. I hope this information will be useful.
