How patients with bone metastases should exercise

If the bone metastasis is not very serious, the patient can do appropriate exercise, mainly aerobic exercise, such as walking, playing Tai Chi, etc., but it is better not to do strenuous activities. Strenuous activities may aggravate the bone metastasis, especially pay attention not to lift heavy objects. If the bone metastasis is more serious and there is a high possibility of pathological fracture, the activity should be reduced. At this time, fractures may occur if you are not careful, especially fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine may cause paralysis, which will greatly reduce the quality of life of the patient. If the bone metastases are single, surgery can be considered. Vertebroplasty can also be considered to fix the bone metastases and reduce the chance of fracture.
