My dad has artery blockages and we're really confused between angioplasty and bypass surgery - which one would be better for his condition? The doctors gave us both options but we're not sure what to go with
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Choice depends on blockage location and risk factors; angioplasty is less invasive, but bypass is better for multiple or complex blocks.

View allI'm having this weird tingling sensation and sometimes my heart starts racing. I got an ECG and my blood pressure was checked, and both came back normal. I'm not sure what to do next or who I should reach out to. Can you guide me on this?
That could be due to anxiety, or any endocrine disorder too,visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm currently on medication for high blood pressure and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take Viagra 50 mg. I'm really looking for advice from an allopathy doctor on this. Can you help me figure this out?
Using Viagra while on blood pressure medication can be safe under medical supervision, but it's important to get an assessment from your doctor. They will consider the specifics of your blood pressure medication, overall health, and any potential interactions to determine the best course of action. Always follow your doctor's advice to avoid any complications.

I've been on Telmasartan 40 mg for 4 days now, and ever since, I've felt super tired and just too weak to do anything. My stomachs been feeling a bit bloated too. I've had high blood pressure and pulse for a while, like for over a year now, but Ive only been on medication for about 12 months. I'm starting to wonder if my body and heart got so used to the high blood pressure that they cant handle what's supposed to be normal. Should I stop the meds and just let my body deal with the high blood pressure, or should I stick with Telma and try to manage these side effects?
u have to continue bp medications , u cannot stop the bp medications .Salt restricted diet is advised .
