No, but maybe they have a pre-existing condition and could be in danger if they walk too much or walk uphill--and may not possibly realize it? A friend of mine

A friend of mine, who is obese and takes a lot of medication, and also who has recovered from COVID, started getting really lightheaded when we walked uphill about a block to our parked car.
- blix 6y agoSounds like your friend realized it. Listening to your body and seeking out professionals if it sends negative signals is probably a better strategy than asking a doctor before any activity, unless you already know you have serious medical conditions. I was once in a similar situation where after recovering from surgery I found I could only walk short distances before becoming lightheaded and tired. I asked a medical professional for advice. He told me to get over it. I'm lucky I didn't have to pay for this information.
