Is it advised to walk on d tredmill during the fifth month of tb treatment? is it compulsory to do exercises like walking for lungs to b healthy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ok, but not needed: Millions of people get TB treatment, and they only have to go about their normal lives, which we hope will include daily walking and some exercise every day or two. Having TB treatment is not related to any additional need for more exercise.
