Moderation: .Prolapse means that the valve is loose, not closing firmly as it should. May permit a tiny amount of blood to leak through, producing a heart murmur. Aerobic exercise strengthens the heart and makes it more efficient.Aerobic exercise including walking, jogging, swimming, or cycling, at moderate pace. Should monitor heart rate and other symptoms and slow down if feel faint or lightheaded.
