I'm a beginner runner. Started recently(two weeks). And i cant ran very far without having to stop and then go again. But when i run(usually morning) i get chest pains afterwards specially in the evening. Is this normal for a beginner? Right now i'm thinking of stopping cause maybe i have some heart condition or something.
Do you smoke? Either way, my feeling on this is, there are 2 things you should NEVER seek advice for on internet forums: 1. Car problems 2. Potential health problems There is nothing that unqualified posters on the internet can tell you that will be of any value to you. Chest pains during any exercise is not normal. I agree, see a doctor.
How would you characterize the chest pain? Is it more sharp (like someone stabbed you in the chest)? Or dull, covering a bigger area? It might be heart related, but it is very possible its heartburn (which often affects people after exercise).
