A member asked:
Is it ok to do cardio exercise while i have colds and cough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cardio: Usually only light cardio is recommended if the cold seems to affect your neck down. So if you have chest congestion and wheezing etc. If the cold affects from the neck up you can do exercise without restriction.
