A member asked:
I have slight esophagus motility problem caught in manometry(taking librax). is it safe to do weight lifting and running exercises with this disorder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: However, if you are noticing more symptoms, either reflux like symptoms or difficulty with swallowing food, then you should lay off the weightlifting and consult your primary care doctor or your gastroenterologist before proceeding. Good luck.
