A member asked:
Is it safe for someone with a brain avm to engage in moderate physical exercise, for example brisk walking?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Brain AVM: Exercise is safe for patients with brain arteriovenous malformations if there are no associated brain aneurysms and there are no high venous pressures or venous constrictions. See a cerebrovascular neurosurgeon to obtain clearance for exercise.
