Hi, its mitral valve prolapse with trivial mitral regurgitation. You can continue your walking and exercise as usual. Weight lifting can be decided upon your exercise capacity. If you have chest pain or palpitations then you have to avoid strenuous exercise. For detailed discussion consult with doctor.
