In cases where pulmonary hypertension is not too severe, it is appropriate to do some light running, such as jogging. However, in severe episodes of pulmonary hypertension, vigorous activity is strictly prohibited, and some patients are even advised against getting out of bed. Therefore, for patients with pulmonary hypertension, the ability to run mainly depends on their individual condition. For example, in the early stages where the disease is not very severe, and some patients may only experience symptoms like shortness of breath and fatigue after activity without chest tightness, rapid breathing, or chest pain, these patients can opt for light jogging based on their own conditions.
