Dr. Sun Qifeng
Patients with pleural thickening and adhesions can choose deep breathing exercises, which help reduce adhesions. Additionally, chest-expanding exercises are beneficial for enhancing the body's resistance to disease and overall physical fitness. However, such patients should avoid overly strenuous activities in daily life, as intense exercise may cause excessive body heat and lead to circulatory system disturbances.
