my mom has a heart block and one artery is blocked is angioplasty really needed or are there other options we can try first
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's understandable to want to explore all options before considering angioplasty, especially when dealing with a heart block and a blocked artery. Angioplasty is a procedure that can help improve blood flow to the heart by opening blocked or narrowed arteries. However, it's not always the first, or even the best, choice, and there are other approaches that can be tried

I'm 27 and dealing with a bit of high BP, around 14082. I'm planning to have intercourse for the first time and I'm worried about how it'll go. I consulted a sexologist who suggested taking Duralast 30 mg once a week to help increase the duration of the act. He mentioned it's safe even with my high BP, but I'm still a bit unsure about it. Is it really okay to use this with my condition?
It's understandable to have concerns, especially with your blood pressure in mind. Duralast (which typically contains dapoxetine) is generally safe for most people with high blood pressure when used as prescribed. However, it's always important to follow your doctor's advice closely and monitor your BP regularly. If you experience any issues, don't hesitate to consult your doctor again.
