In stage 3 CFR, there are not so many symptoms and the symptoms are usually not very serious. Routine exercise is very good for your health. It can boost immune system to help you fight against the disease. It can also help control weight, lower cholesterol level, improve appetite and sleeping quality. Besides, exercise can speed up blood circulation to remove stasis and aerobic exercise may improve ischemia and anoxia in the kidneys to prevent further damage. But avoid overwork, which may worsen the state of illness.
