Why Exercise Matters During Lung Cancer Treatment
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are essential treatments but often cause fatigue, shortness of breath, and muscle weakness. Appropriate regular exercise can ease discomfort, boost physical function, and improve your quality of life.
Benefits of Exercise
- Improves Breathing: Breathing exercises help increase lung efficiency and reduce breathlessness.
- Boosts Stamina: Aerobic activities like walking or cycling enhance endurance and reduce fatigue.
- Strengthens Muscles: Resistance training using body weight (wall push-ups, squats), resistance bands, or light weights prevents muscle loss and improves daily function.
- Lifts Mood: Exercise helps ease anxiety, improve sleep, and elevate emotional well-being.
Personalized Rehabilitation Programs
- Rehabilitation Clinic Visits: Physicians provide exercise recommendations based on your condition.
- Outpatient Physical Therapy: For patients with limited stamina, therapists offer supervised cardiopulmonary training.
- Exercise Testing: If needed, cardiopulmonary exercise testing can assess your capacity and help develop a tailored program.
