Huff coughing.

Posted by sheila7a @sheila7a, 15 hours ago

I've been trying the huff cough.
Yesterday I tried to huff cough and then I felt pain in lower back on the left side.
I'm thinking I don't have good technique because don't really bring up mucus.
I've watched quite a few videos on YouTube.
Maybe I'm trying to hard.
I notice when I do my aerobika I will start exhaling hard and I have to remind myself to slow down and not breathe so fast.
Does anyone else have trouble with huff cough?

Sometimes kids explain things (and demonstrate) more easily than adults. It takes time to undo habits we acquire when our technique is not quite right. Remember to breathe first from your BELLY.
