Asked for male, 48 years old from Trivandrum

Last week my uncle had a block in his coronary artery and Angioplasty has been done. He was a chain smoker. I am having a doubt that, how the smoking causes the block?

Dr. Durgesh

Homeopath•Gurgaon

Tobacco smoke contains co gas, which helps bad cholesterol to adhere to arteries, particularly coronary artery, so smokers are prone to coronary artery disease.

HI,
It is difficult to tell the exact duration. In some , the deposition may occur fast and in some it may be very slow. It also depends of the nature of the food intake. The more the intake of fats, the more faster is its deposition and blockage of the arteries.

CT angio has its own limitation and can not b replaced by angiography .
( as percentage of blockage can only b ruled out in angiography and DM patients are on more risk of blockages)
2 d echo and stress test indicates whether you must go for angiogram or no need of it if your heart function well.
so send reports of your 2 d echo and stress test to help you.

Get him checked at NHI(EOK) in Delhi, they have reserved beds for EWS ,but do carry the certificate. Treatment of patient is not compromised because of status. Reasonable charges for disposables only , Excellent care by surgeons and team , If they advice bypass surgery , go for it without fear instead of multiple stents which will not be beneficial in the long run.

Asked for female, 35 years old from Chennai

My mom is 62years old and she has diabetic disease for past 16 years and she lost tooth one by one without any pain. Tooth automatically popped out two months once approximately and now she doesn't have single tooth. Doctors said it's due to diabetes. 3months back she had a sudden pain in the chest which lasted for few mins after then she was having few troubles like breathing difficulty and sweating frequently but no chest pain. When we checked with doctor, after seeing ECG, there was a mild heart attack and could be a artery block. So he was not sure about it but he prescribed some medicines and suggested us to go for treadmill test or angiogram test to confirm blockage. My mom took the medicines regularly and now she is active and no above mentioned symptoms at all. Should we just give her healthy food without oil, sugar, high cholesterol food? Will the artery blockage be relieved automatically since there is no symptoms further? Kindly suggest me.

Asked for male, 69 years old from Pondicherry

My father was in a motorbike accident 2 days ago. He is 69. We are from america visiting auroville. He cracked a rib and bone and has stitched laceration across skull. We were in a local hospital for 2 days but they were very bad about pain management. We are in a hotel now. He is overweight and in a lot of pain every time he moves, breathes. Too much pain to get up to use the toilet or shift position in bed or sit up to eat. Can you prescribe strong pain medication online that I can get locally so he can sit up to eat? I don't have an indian number but I can whatsapp.

We cannot prescribe medicine as we are physiotherapists. We can also suggest you home care advise like keeping ice in the injured area on the cracked rib and bone. You need to consult the physician for the medicines. For the toileting you can use commodes which will help you to have more comfort while sitting and going for toilet.

Ice therapy would definitely help to reduce the inflammation. We also advise you to use knee cap which would help to prevent the knee from damaging further and also to maintain the quadriceps muscle tone. Stiffness might have developed due to weakness of the ligaments &inflammed cartilage. Specific knee exercises will also help ie. Keeping ball underneath the knee and keep pressing it. That's the simple exercise which will help you to strengthen the knee.

If you have hemolysis and gall stones, it's advisable to undergo a laparoscopic cholecystectomy (surgical removal of gall bladder) to avoid potential complications of gall stones including acute pancreatitis.

Rib pain might be due to gastric pain you can drink hot water which will help you to get rid out of the gas formed in the stomach. It might be due to any mild injury to the ribs too for which you need to keep ice packs probably twice a day with 8 hours gap which will help you to get relieved with pain.
