How to Rehab Your Lungs After Covid 19, Pneumonia or Surgery With Dr. Sigfredo Aldarondo

[@jessicalt4121]

Yes!! That is what happened to me and 3 friends/coworkers. My second trip to the hospital 2 weeks later landed me in hospital bed overnight. That’s when I finally got medicine: iv steroid, oxygen. By next day I felt a lot better, then Lung exercises (deep breath in and exhale) and an inhaler. I have a large hospital bill due to the first callous Dr. who didn’t care that I was 61, vaccinated with lung inflammation seen in an X-ray. The 2nd Dr. gave me good care. Early good treatment is key.

[@andysmith6156]

I'm a singer recovering from 1st, Flu, Pneumonia, and mild heart attack, then Covid a couple weeks ago. I tried singing after Covid and had vocal frying......having missed 5 weeks of work I had to sing regardless. I ordered this device and can't wait to get it. Friday I stumbled upon breathing excersizes that activated my lower lobes and had my best night singing. Can't wait to get my device. Local Drs really don't know how to treat a unique situation like mine but thank GOD for youtube

You guys Rock!! This prior Navy ICU Corpsman survived Covid double pneumonia but NO ONE in charge of my care told me about this.

[@mchoney2122]

I also had Covid with double pneumonia and felt I was going to die. The phone call I received from our Health Department was to “ride it out, don’t go to hospital there’s nothing they can do unless you can’t breathe” stupidity I complied. Ended up going to ER, where I was looked at from the door by ER dr and sent home. I got worse and worse, went to my clinic and received iv infusion for 3 days. By the second day, life started to come back to me. I don’t feel the same as before Covid. I’m going on a year coming up in May. We lost so many people to not giving monoclonal antibody treatments. I’m ordering the breather ASAP. Thank you for the information.

[@keithhogg7228]

Ended up in hospital for 15 days from covid pneumonia back in October after 10 days of hell at home. Nearly ended up in ICU, but managed to get blood oxygen levels up by proning for a few days. Lungs were not good when I was discharged and was very out of breath walking short distances, going up stairs etc. Started off my rehab by doing tai chi, which I have practiced for a while for anxiety - however, the breathing element of it really helped my lungs. I then got back singing, moved onto walking the dogs and now back weight lifting at the gym; lost around 25% of my strength pre-covid, but happy to be alive and able to do activities I enjoyed before getting ill - others have not been so lucky. Information in this video is really good - I am only 35 and keep myself fit, but think I have been immune compromised from long term mental health medication.

I am a Speech Pathologist and concerned that we get bypassed so frequently when we do routinely work on respiration/inspiration. More education is required of the medical community to include us in their outreach. You mention all the things we focus on with dysarthria, dysphonia, dysphasia. Yet no mention of the professionals that are responsible for their rehab. Hoping to build more team spirit!-)

I was in the hospital for nearly 7 weeks with covid19 pneumonia. I have been home about 20 days. I am on oxygen at home and don't really feel I am making much progress from the time I was discharged. Family doc suggested cutting my O2 down a liter/min, but that wasn't consistently keeping me > 90 % saturation at rest. That is what leads me to your channel and this video, with a little help from my algorithmic friends at YT. All that is as nothing -- I knew I was going to subscribe as soon as I watched the first few seconds. Finally here is a content creator on YT who has the self-confidence to go on camera and interview a professional while totally smashed! My kind of people!

I had COVID in April of this year, the coughing and fevers lasted a full two weeks. I don’t know that I have any residual symptoms, but I have had issues with inflammation. I didn’t watch any videos on exercising the lungs but I found it helpful to sing. A lot. It might sound silly but it actually feels like it helped.

[@patty68]

The inflammation is probably from your over all diet.. take 5,000 ius of vitamin d with k2 as well as omega 3s 2000 mg a day and vitamin c 2000 mg a day , just a little zinc... maybe 30 mg a day. Also go onto Dr Mark and Michele Sherwoods site.. utube.. they are functional medicine Docs. .. the virus isn't what is harming and killing people..its the unhealthy ways of people and the incorrect treatment being mandated in our hospitals.

I was glad to have gone through it before them so I could help them not get it as severely as I did. Having access to the information you shared in this video really helped me a lot. I wish more people could see and learn from this video. My primary doctor is concerned about my left lung still being weak from Covid even now, almost a year later. The exercise tips in this video have already been very helpful for me.

I'm not impressed with the ups and downs of my pulmonary capacity year to year, and now I understand what is going on. That Breather is affordable and maybe it's the thing to get me up to a level where walking can become therapeutic instead of simply exhausting. Going to look into it. Thank you both very much - for this, and for your constant efforts in helping people heal in your respective fields :)

What a helpful and informative video. I learned a lot of facts about how COVID affects our respiratory system. Especially, I myself who is recovering from COVID, (3 weeks now since symptoms started). My issues presently are a reactive airway, dry coughing, and sensitivity to temperature differences. I think your recommendation with the "Breather" is going to help me with my respiratory conditioning-of course with my doctors' approval. Thanks again, Bob. I hope you recover soon and be stronger than ever.

Thank you for this information! I am 16 months post-surgery (mitral valve repair/replace, 2 pleurodesis procedures, and av node ablation plus pacemaker). My shortness of breath and lung/ribcage discomfort have been driving me crazy! My ribcage is a different shape now --- there is a marked "corner" on the left side. I have been using an inspirometer and a device that provides resistance for exhalation. I feel as though I have graduated from these devices, but haven't known how to proceed. I am excited at the thought of improving my respiratory fitness, in spite of whatever happened to the shape of my ribs!

My lung capacity has been cut down by at least half.

[@eclectictomboy6873]

Oh no, I hope for you that your lung function comes back 100%. Fast walk if you can and purchase a bunch of large size balloons. Keep blowing them up if you can and graduate in time to smaller balloons. Keep them clean in a ziplock bag in your vehicle, kitchen, nightstand etc... Do as many times a day as you can. Most of these devices are expensive balloons. I wish you good luck. I'd love to hear if you've had any progress?? Oh, stay away from foods that create phlegm, such as chocolate and drying citrus such as lemons.

[@samename6479]

@@eclectictomboy6873 any type of balloon?

[@teresaspensley5640]

I bought a lung strengthening machine called Aerosure and find it works well,just charge it up and go.

[@ritarevell7195]

I am so sorry this is happening to you. I used to work with cystic fibrosis patients, they went faithfully to the pulmonary rehab appointments, unless they were running fevers and were just too sick to go. It was something they had to do daily.

[@langhamp8912]

Autopsies of covid-19 patients shows just how damaged the lungs are, with blood vessels filled with blood.

I’m still healing from Covid Pneumonia. I’m immune suppressed and my doctor didn’t give me a antiviral. I was in the time frame too. I think if I didn’t have the vaccine/booster at all, I may have died. When I was in the hospital they gave me paxlovid and it was day 16. I continued to take it after I got out of the hospital and feeling better. So maybe it does work after you’re very sick.

[@lou-lu2644]

Great info, thanks!

[@RobbsHomemadeLife]

How easy is it to clean the Breather? Some of the reviews on amazon said they did not like it because of the cleaning procedure that was supposed to be done every time. What has been your experience?

[@SpiritofProphecy999]

Well in NYC they WERE putting people on ventilators prematurely even for things like anxiety……. So that fear doesn’t come from no where.

[@BobandBrad]

True

[@onewomansjourney760]

Exactly, using ventilators when they have not been needed has killed so many people.

[@jude1515]

After COVID it’s taking awhile to get my breathing back to normal.

[@AllNaturalSkinCare1]

Awesome info!!! merci !!🥰

[@grettalemabouchou6779]

Yoga has helped immensely!🌺💕🌺💕🌺🙏💕🌺💕🌺💕

[@bryanhempel4764]

I have had a Breather for a few months and I have to say the hospitals need to trash all their respirometers and start handing out Breathers to all their patients.

[@gwenevans1479]

If you don’t have the apparatus to rehab your lungs, but you have an incentive spirometer is it better to use that than using nothing?

[@mj-ls7qr8xp3n]

Very interesting!!! Thank you!

[@danawinright3351]

Fascinating information!

[@wendyfarris9303]

"Obvuously unvaccinated" 31 year old in ventilator.... how is it so obvious? Drugs,, drugs, drugs....Early Remdesivir......I made it to 9:26, couldn't listen anymore. I didn't know we had Drug deficiency.

[@wendyfarris9303]

Ok,I wanted to hear advice about singing because of the great comments. I listened to 2 more minutes of him talking about blood clots and taking a booster. I really tried! I can't listen! Don't they know those vaccines and booster shots cause blood clots?

[@extramail850]

Does anyone know where are the lung exercises are‽?? Ive been watching for like 20 min and still nothing?

[@elizabethvillalobos8927]

God bless you Bob. Take care of yourself

Uh oh. Should I download this before YT sends it to the dungeon?

[@eddiedelzer8823]

Dealing with problems breathing after covid, these breathing exercises might help. You can start with lower numbers and work your way up to this exercise level. Start small this will make you DIZZY. 1. Sit down to do these exercises 2. Inhale for a count of 18 hold for a count of 36 exhale for a count of 18. 3. A set is 10 inhales, do 3 sets of 10 inhales in the morning, 3 sets at noon, and 3 sets at bedtime. Learn to become a diaphragm breather not an upper chest breather. Extra exercise tip. Wash your hands first. Make a fist hold it to your lips and breath through your closed fist. Open and close your fingers to adjust pressure of air flow through fist. This also helps in building up your diaphragm muscles.

[@KeepRight338]

When I went to the ER, one nurse was getting oxygen flowing while the other was attaching a toe tag.

[@elvirad1034]

We were treated early by our physician with triple zinc ionophors, plus azithromcin, zinc, high dose vitamin C and D and chest PT including proning and postural drainage, as well as nebulized .1% H2O2. We are in the higher risk age group. plus my husband has had an MI and Quradruple bypass several years ago. Fortunately we both recovered without hospitalization. We have been staying home, masking when we do need to go out. Our 13 year old grandson had visited us. We felt safe because he was fully vaccinated, several months before, but while visiting us he became ill, and he tested positive for COVID. I became ill a few days later, followed by my husband.

[@bradnelson253]

Acute respiratory failure due to covid occurs due to inflammation caused when your immune system is trying to purge dead virus cells. Patients are not contagious after first 10 days or so as a healthy immune system kills it off. I survived a 28-day hospital stay which was extended due to covid induced pneumonia and complications of a bilateral pneumothorax (hole in both lungs).

[@patty68]

I keep healthy and take supplements.. I work In health care and have been around this virus since the start.. im Not vaccinated and tested positive to COVID in December..I had a stuffy nose.. little tired. I was fine.. get healthy.. ive treated more people with adverse effects from the vaccine than the virus

[@r.p.8906]

Some lost their licenses helping and treating people. This country is highjacked by big pharma and nobody is doing anything about it. Look at the youtube video of January 24, 2022 Senator Johnson and the doctors who healed thousand and thousands of patients risking their licenses and loosing their hospital privileges... Watch that doctor crying when descibing watching a patient die in the hospital because they did not give him the meds. Crying from a broken soul. Doctors are healing people as their calling and when this is prevented and blocked, they can just die from grief.

That’s great and all, but how long should you do therapy work for?

[@carolmarshall3179]

I was in the hospital for hypoxia from post COVID. My O 2 sats at night around 85% and I need to strengthen my lung capacity. How long will it take to feel effects from using the Breather device? Thank you.

[@jeannedulak8180]

Start taking anti-inflammatory substances now- like regularly. There are so many natural alternatives out there.

[@UcheyBekee]

Pls list some of the substance 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Somewhere it should have been noted that he is an executive in the company manufacturing the thing. There is some good info here, but omitting this fact clouds the whole interview.

Thank you for this. I just got tested positive yesterday while between vaccine doses…feeling terrible and a bit scared
