What's the best form of exercise with diverticulosis
by Sherwin, May 27, 2001 12:00AM
The information I have been reading says that regular exercises is advised. Yet, I experience mild cramping on the days after I have exercised and I feel fine on the days when I don't exercise. This can be anything from simply walking to using the exercise equipment at the gym. I have been using a variety of equipment for muscle toning of the legs and upper body. The cramps the following day seem to appear most after this routine. Should I avoid these muscle toning routines or, since the cramping is not severe (just annoying) continue them? I really don't want to give them up.
