Hello, welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for writing to us. You should first consult a cardiologist and go for a ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY to evaluate the cause of murmur. The treatment depends on the cause, type and grade of the murmur. As regards the activities he can do whatever he likes. But keep in mind that sudden respiratory distress and blueness of lips and tongue are ominous signs for him. Hope I have answered your query. Stay fit, good luck.
