It is stent and not stint. It is a localised solution and not a permanet. It is a small spring implanted inside the artery to release the block. There is not guarantee that you will not get blockage at other places. Better take ayurvedic capsule Rudved daily for 4 to 6 months which will imporve the blood flow and you can live your normal life.

human beings such as you frighten me. Too uninformed for his or her very own sturdy and too unwilling to coach themselves even a small quantity. first of all they are STENTS. Your chum had an ANGIOPLASTY. There are 3 coronary arteries finest to the heart. They maximum probable did the LAD first, they're going to do yet another in some weeks, and if any others are mandatory, in a stick to as much as that technique. I truthfully have 13 STENTS and a triple bypass. I truthfully have had dissimilar angiograms and angioplasties. Your chum has coronary heart ailment, and the well-being care provider basically stored his pitiful existence. make an effort to coach your self, you're too previous to be this ignorant. BTW, nurse52 is a fraud. Any nurse well worth her salt would comprehend a thank you to spell STENT.

By now, you should be back to your usual level of activity. It's during the first week or so after you're discharged from the hospital that you should limit your activity and not lift heavy objects. This limit in activity doesn't have anything to do with the stent itself; it has more to do with the access site used during the procedure.
