View allMy dad had angioplasty a couple of months ago, and lately, hes been getting these red patches on his skin. They stick around for about 15 to 20 days and then disappear, only to pop up somewhere else on his body. Its been happening for the past month, and hes still on the meds the doctor gave him after the angioplasty. What could be causing these red patches?
The recurring red patches on your father's skin, healing and reappearing elsewhere, could be related to various factors, including allergic reactions to medications, skin infections, or autoimmune disorders; given his recent angioplasty and ongoing medication, consult his cardiologist or a dermatologist to rule out potential causes, such as drug-induced vasculitis or skin reactions to antiplatelet medications, and adjust his treatment plan accordingly.

I'm a bit concerned about my heart health. In March, my cardiologist recommended a 2D echo and TMT test. I've started taking Prolomet R50 and Deplatt A 75 as prescribed. I'm just wondering, does it seem like we're on the right track with the treatment plan?
