Exercise is very good for your health, but there are some medical conditions that need to be avoided to avoid aggravating the condition.

According to Dr. Dharitri Brahmbhatt, Head of Clinical and Business Health, Physiotattva (India), exercise is an important factor in maintaining health and improving the quality of life. However, for certain health conditions, exercise can be harmful and increase the risk of complications. Understanding which diseases should be avoided from exercise is very important to protect the body and ensure effective recovery. Here are 5 health conditions that you should not practice when you encounter them.

High fever or infection

When the body is fighting an infection, especially a high fever, exercise can dehydrate, increase heart rate and stress the immune system. Rest until the fever is gone and recover.

Severe heart disease

For heart diseases such as arrhythmia, heart attack or high blood pressure, avoid high-intensity exercise. Consult your doctor before starting the regimen.

Asthma or uncontrolled respiratory disease

Exercise can aggravate respiratory problems during acute asthma or pneumonia. Use spray and consult your doctor about safe exercises.

Severe muscle, bone or soft tissue injury

After injuries such as torn ligaments and broken bones, exercise can cause further damage. Rest and recovery should be monitored under the guidance of a doctor.

After surgery or postpartum recovery

After surgery or cesarean section, the body needs time to recover. Exercising early can put stress on the wound. Follow your doctor's instructions before starting exercise.
