During exercise, our blood moves away from the diaphragm to the limbs.

The diaphragm is the muscle that separates the stomach and abdomen from the heart and lungs.

It's one of the main muscles involved in breathing.

Most scientists believe the pain is caused by a reduction in blood supply to the diaphragm, causing it to cramp.

The stitch is caused by fluids which the body finds hard to digest.

This causes the gut to tug on the ligaments connecting it to the diaphragm.
