What are the precautions for exercising with lymphoma

Cancer treatment is a long process. In order to treat it, medicine has been constantly researching and producing a variety of treatment methods, such as radiotherapy, drug therapy, surgical treatment, etc. In fact, in addition to these conventional treatments, there are also alternative treatments, such as medicated diet therapy and exercise therapy. So, what are the precautions for lymphoma exercise?

Exercise is a good way to fight cancer. According to analysis, the main reasons are: first, exercise can reduce the time for food to pass through the stomach and intestines, which will reduce the time for carcinogens in food to be absorbed, and can effectively prevent gastrointestinal tumors such as colon cancer. Second, it can regulate the level of hormone secretion in the body, which can prevent cancers related to hormone levels such as breast cancer; third, it can regulate the immune system. A healthy immune system is the most important part of preventing cancer.

Lymphoma Lymphoma However, relevant experts said that when choosing relevant anti-cancer exercises, lymphoma patients should choose the sports, exercise intensity and exercise time that suits them according to their age, condition and physical condition.

Generally speaking, the best exercise is aerobic exercise such as jogging, cycling, and swimming. Lymphoma cancer patients can exercise 3-5 times a week, about 30 minutes each time. Relevant experts said that the intensity of exercise should be controlled so that the heart rate does not exceed 70% of the maximum heart rate and is not lower than 50% of the maximum heart rate.

Aerobic exercise In addition to aerobic exercise, you should also pay attention to the following:

(1) When formulating an exercise therapy plan, patients should make it based on the severity of their condition, and should also fully consider the consequences of the disease and treatment, and treat them accordingly.

(2) Pay attention to combining whole-body exercise with local exercise, so as to maximize the role of rehabilitation medicine.

(III) Gradually increase the amount of exercise. At the beginning of exercise, the amount of exercise should be small. As the patient's body function improves, the amount of exercise can be gradually increased. After reaching the required intensity, maintain this level of exercise. Avoid sudden and unlimited increase in the amount of exercise to avoid side effects. Especially for those who have been bedridden for a long time, it usually takes a considerable period of time to resume their original physical activities.
