Stomach Pain

Question:
 
Hello!  I am 19 years old and just started running about 6 weeks
ago.  Every time I run (about 3 times a week for about 3 miles) my lower stomach hurts afterwards.  I always wait about 2 hours after I eat to run,
and the meals I eat are not huge meals or anything.  It is very discouraging
knowing that every time I want to run or work out that I will be in pain
afterwards.
Thanks for your time!

 Answer:

 Dear Kelly,
 
There may be several causes of the symptoms you are getting: dietary, fluid levels, bladder or bowel related, to name but a few.
I would suggest that you consult your family doctor for assessment and necessary advice.
 
Kind regards
