My 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?

I've been dealing with a heavy feeling in my chest and some chest pain for the past four months. The pain often starts on the center left side but sometimes shifts to the center right.

What do you think I should do, and are there any specific tests you recommend?
