Stitches… we have all experienced them at least once, or maybe you get a side stitch regularly when you exercise. This video will explain what causes a stitch, the best ways to treat a stitch, and how you can prevent them in the first place.

Anna and Rick will be taking you through the most common treatments for stitches and exploring which is the most effective method, debunking myths and talking about the science behind them. We hope this video separates the fact from the fiction, and you know exactly what to do the next time you get a stitch whilst running.
