Pleurisy

[nello55]

I recently had a bout of pleurisy, only lasted a couple of days the second time in about 2 years. I do a five-mile walk every day and some fairly aggressive exercise during that and then about 20 minutes sit-ups etc when I get home. Family and friends say I should cut back on the exercise even though I feel fine, good breathing etc?

Give your body a break perhaps just for a short while, to be sure.

Take care and stay safe xxxx

Errrr...... Your family and friends are right. I am not entirely sure that pleurisy and vigorous exercise should even be in the same sentence. Gentle walking is probably advisable. Be sensible. You want to heal not aggravate it. Take care. xx 👋
