Patient's question:
A year ago, a slight myocardial infarction was detected after a thorough examination. The doctor recommended that based on the severity of the condition, physical fitness, age, personal interests, and other factors, you should decide on activities that can be tolerated long-term. It is best to choose activities such as walking, running, practicing Tai Chi, practicing Qigong, or cycling.
