Q. Can medical treatment cure blocked blood vessel?
Hi doctor,
My mother is 80 years old. She felt uneasy in the night, and we immediately took her to the hospital. She was diagnosed with three vessels blocked two of them 90%, and the third one is 40% blockage. After angiography, the doctor advised for an operation. Due to her age, we would like to get treatment with medicine. Is there any medical treatment to cure my mother without operation?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- Unfortunately, no medical treatment can restore the blood flow in the blocked vessels.
- Your monther's condition requires a percutaneuos coronary stent.
