Why does the cold get worse after running?
As we all know, running and fitness has a good exercise effect on our body, which can speed up blood circulation, strengthen metabolism and enhance our immunity and resistance. So many people choose to run when they have a cold, but in the end they find that the cold is getting worse and worse. This is because even if you use exercise to fight a cold, you should do it according to the actual physical condition and the degree of the cold, and you can't blindly.

1, you'd better not exercise if you have a cold. When we catch a cold, the virus invades our bodies, causing our bodies to feel weak. For a slight cold, it is ok to do some mild aerobic exercise. However, exercise consumes a lot of energy in our body, which is not conducive to our body to resist colds. This is especially true for situations that are not slight cold. We don't approve of using exercise to restore health. On the contrary, exercise reduces our body's immunity and resistance, and even aggravates colds.

2. Compliance? The neck principle? . Even if you want to recover from a cold through exercise, you must follow the exercise? The neck principle? Yes What is the neck principle, that is, taking the neck as the dividing point, when the symptoms of a cold occur above the neck, such as mild headache, stuffy nose, runny nose, sore throat and so on. , you can exercise moderately; However, for cold symptoms below the neck, such as general weakness, weakness of limbs, weakness of waist and knees, chest tightness and nausea, it is not suitable for anti-cold exercise.

Your physical condition is very important. Of course, the most important thing is your physical condition. For some people who don't exercise regularly, they should rest more when they have a cold, and exercise is not recommended; For people who exercise regularly, it is best to judge whether it is suitable for exercise through the neck principle.

Finally, I need to remind you that the best way to recover from a cold is to rest more, so that your body can have enough energy to fight the virus. If it doesn't improve, it should be diagnosed and treated in time.
