Boxing a great exercise but you should be consulting with your medical team on what are the best exercises for you. They should be able to identify anything you should avoid initially, might know programs locally that can help you get started, etc.

Hello!
Boxing is a great exercise and very good cardio! However, I would consult with your team or doctor for personal exercise periods in order to prevent mishaps. Boxing can get the best of some individuals because they tend to throw themselves into heavier workloads, which I DO NOT recommend, for beginners. I would take it step by step, especially in your condition. I would start doing smaller exercises like walking, and then progressively transition into hitting the bag. It may be a good investment if you hire a coach.
