A member asked:

Is walking good for bronchial & cardiovascular disease &pvd?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes!: Absolutedly, walking is beneficial for overall health for almost every health condition, but especially for heat and lung diseases. And the primary initial treatment for early PVD is walking. You can never go wrong with walking, more the better.
