Is it safe for COPD patients to exercise?

KDAH

Yes, exercise can be safe and beneficial for COPD patients, but it should be done cautiously and with a doctor’s guidance. Regular physical activity can improve lung function, increase stamina, reduce symptoms, prevent muscle weakness, and boost mood. Start with low-intensity exercises, such as walking, and gradually increase intensity. Always monitor breathing, use supplemental oxygen if needed, and include warm-ups and cool-downs. Consult a doctor before starting any exercise program to ensure safety. #COPD #ExerciseForHealth #LungHealth #StayActive #COPDSupport
