A member asked:
Can i get rid of my bruit through exercise? because when i was smaller i heard no noise in comparison to being 42lbs overweight now.

Bruit: a bruit is due to turbulent blood flow, often from atherosclerotic (plaque) buildup. It's detected via auscultation by your provider so I don't think it's something you could detect yourself. Perhaps you're thinking of something else? Regardless - if you're 42 lbs overweight then exercise and weight loss are a good thing.
