5 Tips to Avoid Stitches When Running

If you’ve ever had a sharp pain in your side during a run or training session, you’ve likely experienced a side stitch. It’s one of the most common complaints for runners and athletes — and it can quickly bring your workout to a halt.

The good news? In many cases, stitches are preventable with the right preparation and habits.

Our physiotherapy team at MTM Physiotherapy Duncraig has shared 5 simple tips to help reduce your risk of getting stitches, so you can run, train and compete more comfortably.

In our latest blog, we cover:
✔ Why stitches happen
✔ Simple changes you can make before running

🛑 Back Pain Myth Busted! 🛑

“Rest is the best cure for back pain.” ❌

The truth? While it’s tempting to stay in bed, in most cases, gentle movement and guided exercises are often the quickest path to recovery. At MTM Physiotherapy Duncraig, we help you move safely, strengthen key muscles, and reduce pain — without becoming a couch potato.

💡 Tip: Try light walking or simple stretches if you’re experiencing mild back discomfort. Avoid prolonged bed rest unless advised. But remember: it’s always best to seek a physiotherapy assessment first to ensure your exercises are safe for you.

📞 Feeling stiff or sore? Book an assessment today and let our team tailor a plan that works for you.
