1. Side stitch. It is most likely caused by exhaustion, strenuous exercise, or drinking beverages with too much gas. When observing the causes of stitches, most of them are caused by excessive or improper force or sudden air intake when lifting weights, pushing carts, jumping, climbing, lifting or carrying heavy objects, causing the gas to gather in the chest and not dissipate, resulting in pain and fullness. In severe cases, the qi and blood may be injured at the same time, or the collaterals may rupture and cause hemoptysis, or the blood may remain under the ribs, or accumulate in the chest. If it is not treated for a long time or is improperly treated, it can often cause tuberculosis.
