Hello
thanks for using Health Care magic .

I would be pleased to answer your question
Since your son has mucosal thickening , I wouldnt advice any activity like Karate as that involves a tremendous amount of pressure on the sinus cavities.
other activities like walking , etc he can continue . it would be better also he takes good rest and finishes the course of tablets as the doctor has prescribed.
Thanks and Take
