Of course, asthma patients should pay attention to the following problems when running:
A. avoid contact with allergens.
B. Use drugs properly before exercise.
C. carry emergency spray with you when exercising.
Asthma patients should also make some targeted exercise plans during exercise:
(1) Warm-up and finishing activities can prevent or reduce the occurrence of exercise-induced asthma.
(2) The choice of sports is also the key. Outdoor running is the most likely cause of asthma, followed by indoor treadmill and cycling, and swimming is very rare. Because the wet and warm air on the water surface can prevent the trachea from becoming dry and cold, it is especially necessary to take preventive measures when running outdoors to avoid accidents during running.
(3) Exercise duration. Long-term high-intensity continuous exercise (such as running and cycling) is more likely to lead to exercise-induced asthma than repetitive short-term explosive exercise (less than 5 minutes each time). These are all issues that asthma patients need to pay attention to when running.
(4) Exercise intensity High-intensity exercise is more likely to lead to exercise-induced asthma than moderate-intensity exercise, so patients with asthma should mainly jog at moderate and low intensity when running.
(5) Breathing through nasal cavity can effectively absorb wet and warm air than breathing through oral cavity, and effectively reduce the stressors of asthma during exercise.
(6) Wearing a mask or scarf in winter can increase the temperature and humidity of the inhaled air and reduce the irritation to the respiratory tract.
(7) Avoid contact with potential allergens and irritants in the environment. If there are allergens or irritants in the environment (such as dirty places, resurfaced gym floors, smoke in the air, high concentration of pollen in spring morning), the time and place of exercise should be changed in time.
