Suggest Treatment For Mild Pulmonary Regurgitation
My teenage son also was just diagnosed with mild pulmomary regurgitation. I was told it is a congenital heart defect and that he can continue to play sports and drive. He passes out from time because of this and also has been diagnosed with vasovagal. Do you have any thoughts about how safe it is for him to play sports and / or drive?

Resepcted user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
*Management is supportive care & preventive measures for flare up of
respiratory ailments.
*Can play sports / drive taking utmost care with precisely knowing the limit
of lung capacity upto which he can be active , beyond which he will have
symptoms.
Hope this clears your doubts.
