Moderate exercise is very beneficial to health, but for asthma patients, improper exercise is likely to trigger or aggravate asthma attacks, therefore, for asthma patients to choose a scientific exercise. So, how exactly should asthma patients exercise? What exercises are suitable for asthma patients The occurrence of asthma has a certain relationship with the type and intensity of exercise. The more suitable exercises for asthma patients are walking, tai chi, golf, jogging, cycling, swimming and other aerobic exercises. For asthma patients, swimming is a very good way to exercise. On the one hand, regular swimming can improve the nervous system’s regulation of body temperature, improve the body’s adaptability to changes in climate, enhance lung capacity and improve the function of the human respiratory system. On the other hand, the air inhaled by patients during swimming is milder and more humid, and the body is kept horizontal to the water surface during swimming, which is beneficial to the evacuation of mucus accumulated at the bottom of the lungs, so swimming can be called the most ideal exercise for asthma patients. It should be noted that high levels of chlorine in swimming pools can cause asthma attacks. Therefore, it is best to know the level of chlorine in the pool before swimming and try to choose some pools with good outdoor ventilation. In terms of season, the humid summer is more suitable for asthma patients to exercise, while in the cold winter, on the one hand, the air is dry and the oxygen content in the cold air is low, on the other hand, asthma patients are often accompanied by airway hyperresponsiveness, and the stimulation of cold air can trigger asthma attacks. Therefore, asthma patients should try to avoid exercising in the cold and dry season, and if they want to exercise, try to do it indoors and pay attention to the warmth of the head and face when exercising outdoors. Other precautions for asthma patients when exercising To avoid exercise-induced asthma attacks, asthma patients can do some preventive measures to prevent asthma attacks when exercising, such as: 1.
