Brief Answer:
It's related to chronic sinus allergy...
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
1. Exercise is a type of stress to our body. When it's done in moderation, more white blood cells will flow in the periphery, thus, it will be easier to fight any type of infection.
2. If you are a chronic sinus allergy sufferer, exercise would aggravate your allergy symptoms, thus, your breathing will become more difficult making your body more exhausted.
If you continue exercise for several consecutive days, you won't let time to your body to regain the strength. You are giving thus, signals of continuous stress that would make your body weaker with flu-like symptoms.
3. It is normal for the body temperature to get increased after exercising. During physical activity, there is a lot of energy released from the muscles. This energy is noted with increased body temperature.
4. My advice are:
- keep your nose open to help breathing while exercising
- avoid intense physical activity or run them at least twice a week with resting days in between
- you can have regular mild to moderate exercise on daily basis on short periods
Hope it helped!
