Can a person with mitral valve regurgitation do cardio exercises with out worry?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes you can: It is safe to do cardio exercises with mitral valve regurgitation. If the leakage through your mitral valve is significant you may notice that you get short of breath more easily. Exercising regularly is a good way to recondition your heart. It also helps you detect quickly if you start to get more symptomatic.
