A member asked:
I have tonsilitis, i don't feel particularly unwell at the moment- is it ok to exercise?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes but: take it easy. If you are not feeling well, you will not perform at your maximum level. Don't push too hard, and don't feel badly if you can't do as much as usual. If you feel any unusual symptoms while exercising, stop and rest until you are feeling better. Hope this helps!
