Lung function test

2017-05-29 12:13:37
I did the lung function test today. I was unable to blow out the air, even after the nebulisation. But I am otherwise normal, leading an active life style. What should I understand from this?

Hello...... Pulmonary function test is done  to know  the capacity of respiratory muscles.  This test is done to know  the peak  expiratory volume..  Don't  worry but it should not cause distress in normal respiration..  You shouldn't do high energy requiring activities which increases respiratory rate..
