Generation

Delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is the muscle pain and stiffness you feel 24-72 hours after unfamiliar or intense exercise, especially activities involving eccentric contractions (like running downhill or lowering weights). It occurs when exercise causes microscopic damage to muscle fibers, triggering an inflammatory response as your body repairs the tissue. While the exact mechanisms are still being researched, DOMS is thought to result from this combination of structural muscle damage, inflammation, and the accumulation of fluid in the affected tissues. The good news is that DOMS is a normal part of adaptation—as your muscles repair and strengthen, you'll experience less soreness from the same activity in the future.
