Small balloon, big help
2016-07-06
The lung function is not strong enough, and various diseases have emerged. Many people suffer from chronic inspiratory morbidity, and the resulting cough, cough, and shortness of breath often cause great troubles in daily life. The effect of drugs on improving lung function is effective, but exercise can play a role of “nurturing the lungs”, but inappropriate exercise can aggravate cough and wheezing, and even cause life-threatening.
Here's a simple and easy way to exercise your lungs: "Blowing a balloon." Everyone will blow a balloon. It is not just a game for children. We often encourage people with poor lung function to blow balloons.
Now everyone will come with me to blow a balloon: take a deep breath and stop sucking. After a little breath, blow slowly against the balloon until you can't blow it. 2-3 times a day, 15-20 minutes each time. It should be emphasized that blowing a balloon is not about blowing it fast, nor about blowing it. Just blow it out as much as possible. In fact, this is abdominal breathing. Long-term adherence not only helps to reduce residual air volume in the lungs, but also improves lung function, and it can delay the progression of the disease for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
This ballooning activity has been welcomed by patients in the respiratory department. It not only exercises lung function, but also enhances the patient's initiative, adds fun, and is simple and easy. Really made a small balloon, big help.
