When Can I Start A Fiber Rich Diet And Workout Exercises After An Episode Of Mild Diverticulitis?
Hello. I am a 31 year old male and just had an episode of mild diverticulitis. I have a good BMI, i am very active. CT scan was conclusive that i had Diverticulitis. They started me on Augmentin 875-125 twice a day for 10 days because i do not tolerate Cipro. Its been 5 days. When will i be able to work out again? How long before i start to add fiber back in my diet? I am worried about overdueing it.

Hello,
There is no need for antibiotics to begin with. But to answer your question, all you should do is listen to your body; if you feel OK, try start working out again. Add fiber as soon as you like.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
