A member asked:
How long do you need to wait before you work out after av fistula placement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Walking can be started as soon as you are comfortable and have the energy. Exercising with your arms should only be started once the sutures are out and the wounds are healed. That is usually after 2 weeks.
