How to manage myocardial bridging in the LAD?

Question

Hi doctor,

I have a 50 percent occlusive muscle bridge in the LAD, which was detected by angiography. I am currently taking Atorvastatin and Aspirin. Will it be helpful? I am 29 years old, and sometimes I experience chest pain.

Please advise.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have reviewed your angiography (attachment removed to protect patient identity). You need not worry. Please continue taking your medication and follow up with your cardiologist. Yes, you have myocardial bridging in the LAD (left anterior descending artery), but in general, the coronary arteries are fine. Avoid strenuous activities and fatty foods. I advise you to consume double-toned milk.
