“The first step in preventing the development of exercise hepatomegaly is to develop good exercise habits and not to increase the amount of exercise you do. People who do not exercise enough or lack comprehensive exercise are prone to “hepatomegaly” after exercise.
Secondly, it is important to prepare well for exercise by mobilising cardiovascular function to reduce the resistance of the blood to return to the heart and reduce acute stasis in the liver. Finally, it is important to pay attention to the rhythm of breathing during exercise, to harmonise breathing with the pace and to try to take deeper breaths in order to reduce the pressure in the hepatic veins.”
