Mobile radiation as such is harmful for anyone. it doesnt have any published evidence tht it increases the infection. so it's better to limit mobile usage.

Spirulina capsule is found to be effective in reducing blood cholesterol levels. It contains various amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins and small amount of carbohydrates. In usa, it’s prescribed as food supplements. I will like to know current medicines, bp, pulse rate, fasting lipid profile etc prior to advising its use as it has to be individualised. Thank you.

Yes please continue both clopidogrel and ascard 75 mg. These are blood thinners required lifelong after cabg surgery. If discontinued then the risk of graft blockage is high.

Kindly go for a routine post bypass checks where they will do simple blood tests, ecg and echo and find out the cause for your exhaustion. After bypass, one should follow up with the doctor at 1,3,6 and 12 months after surgery and more frequently if you have any symptoms.

Asked for male, 47 years old from Bangalore

HI, What are the steps to follow immediately after open-heart surgery? Like food, exercise etc.

Dr. Kapil Minocha88%(118 ratings)

Hello. My suggestion are you should take whatever healthy food for 1 month post surgery if you are non diabetic for your body to recover from major surgery. Exercises usually are respiratory like incentive spirometer and active limbs exercises. Take a walk without tiring yourself and slowly increase over days.
