Besides the heart, lungs are also important organs in our bodies. The primary function of the lungs is to exchange oxygen gas from the environment into the body’s blood system and exchange carbon dioxide in our blood system out of the body into the environment. However, there was a period when the Covid-19 pandemic occurred which made many people worry whether they would be infected or not. If they were infected, what level of severity were they and what were the effects after being infected, or a symptom called long Covid?
Since Covid-19 directly affects our respiratory system, large amounts of infection will cause inflammation in the alveolus, causing pneumonia. Germs in the alveolus can cause obstruction, affecting the exchange and transport of oxygen, and causing problems that can cause inefficient or inoperable functionality. As a result, the bloodstream and the body do not receive oxygen as it should be.
When recovering from Covid-19, severe inflammation of the body caused by COVID-19 infections will result in lesions such as scars or various connective tissue in the lungs, resulting in the flexibility lost in the lungs, pulmonary infiltration occurs, does not exchange oxygen very well, feels shortness of breath, easily tired, not refreshing, chronic cough, and can’t do any activities as usual. Today, ACU PAY will explain the role of lings, and how to exercise to strengthen our lungs.
These six exercises to strengthen the lungs will improve your breathing ability, reduce easy to get tiredness, and difficulty breathing, and prevent atelectasis. Apart from lung exercise, you must check your health regularly. With good wishes from ACU PAY.
