Running & Push ups in Retinal Thinning

2018-03-07 07:54:07
I am 22, F. I have retinal thinning in right eye that is under control. But my doctor suggested that if I want to run & exercise, I better undergo surgery. I run fast daily & do push ups, crunches etc. I have a violent sneezing problem too. Am I at risk of detachment without surgery? I have already stopped doing weights, gymnasts etc.

Is exercise your  career or hobby.whatsoever it may be but you must follow the advice of your doctor for avoiding strenuous exercise. Surgery is not needed. You may get precautionary laser done. But still you  will have to have precautions.
