Diaphragm/rib

1 watcher

Ultracat Mar 2012 11:36am, 7 Mar 2012 9629 posts	0 Ultracat Hi I have what I would consider mild discomfort in the diaphragm/rib area, a bit like DOMs. Been doing shredding and some weight training with PT. a few years ago I found out I had a hiatus hernia but rarely have any symptoms. I see that weight training is not good for hiatus hernias. I had no problem running this. Will I rest from weight training and shredding and see if it's that, or any helpful suggestions. I don't want my running to suffer.

Try not to over stretch but some gentle massage of the area is also good if its not too painful. (from someone recovering from a fractured rib which is a similar care pattern only longer and stronger - hope it gets better soon and if it starts to hurt to breathe deeply then get it checked out at the docs!)

Got something to say?
