Whether you pop in a dancing game on your gaming system, you have an impromptu dance battle with friends and family, or sign up for more structured dance lessons from an instructor or a dance company getting moving is important to airway hygiene. The uncoordinated breathing patterns during dancing helps get air behind secretions or stuck secretions and can help get those secretions moving by varying airflow through a PCD patient’s airways.

If you’re an adult, remember that the best airway clearance technique for you is the one that you will actually do. There are tons of airway clearance techniques and tons of outside the box ideas as well. Experiment today and put the fun back into your life. Remember airway hygiene is an important part of primary ciliary dyskinesia care.
