I have chest wall lymphdema so have to protect my arm. I was told to wear a compression sleeve when doing any walking, exercise, biking, or using my arm. We had a yoga class in our last bc support meeting and we were told not to put any pressure on the affected arm and to always wear a sleeve, by the instructor. She said light stretching is good but if one feels pain to stop ASAP. Hope this helps and I am sure you will hear from others. hugs, Sandy
