Is it advisable to do exercise when affected by Behcet Syndrome? Which activities would you suggest and how intense should they be?
Exercise with Behcet Syndrome: which activities patients recommend or avoid, and what the evidence says.
I have heard that exercise is generally advisable although it is always good to talk to your doctor before engaging in any strenuous physical activity as individual patients symptoms can vary quite a bit. Generally speaking however, moderate and reasonable exercise is a stress reducer, which could be helpful in reducing symptoms exacerbated by stress.

Exercise as the body can take it! Do NOT over exert the body EVER! Stressing the joints, muscles, tendons can only cause harm and induce a flare. Simple walking increases dopamine which certainly increases your emotionally well being and keeps you limber. There are plenty of yoga and Tia chi videos free on youtube. This all adds up to keeping the body healthy, mood stability, increased self esteem and lowers the risk of blood clots because we are moving about instead of lying in bed.

Moderate exercise is good for you between flare ups like walking and swimming , it's all about knowing your own body and being active when you can and resting when you need too

Yes, swimming, yoga, stretching, walking. Nothing too harsh on the joints but necessary to keep moving.

Listen to your body. No medic knows your body as well as you do. On good days I walk for miles on flat level, no strain on my joints and a few hours in the gym. On extreme bad days I can get to the toilet is a marathon.

It's good to keep the joints and muscles stretched, but there is no specific exercise i could recommend.
It's an individual thing. Some people will love to practice pilates or yoga, others will play basketball or swim. It's important to listen to own body and its reactions. We shouldn't do the exercises that cause pain or can cause serious injuries. It's good to ask the doctor or physiotherapist to advise some exercises.

Walking when possible, rest when necessary, and light weights for maintaining strength

I walk a short distance a few times a day if possible. I do yoga stretches every morning. My exercises are slow and deliberate because if I overdo it I will be in pain.

Yes! The best exercises are low impact like swimming, cycling, elliptical, and walking.
