When bedridden, how often should I get up and walk around?

What are you bedridden for? I'm no doctor but if you can walk a little everyday I'm sure it's good to prevent blood clots.

Honestly you should ask your doctor though, unless you're bedridden so you can be a fatass.

Thank you

Temporary depression

I only want to walk the minimum amount for now but I don't want blood problems.

RN here. You NEED to get up and move. Clots can be a factor, yes. But, depending on age, so is pneumonia. Get your sad ass out of bed and mope around the house...

Exercise and getting out of bed or doing something with your day helps with depression enormously. http://slatestarcodex.com/2014/06/16/things-that-sometimes-help-if-youre-depressed/

Break things down into small steps, even if the first step is sit up, then get out of bed, then walk away from your bed/chairs and walk back to sit down. Start doing something. Start out wherever you can.
