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.

For starters, bed rest can help relieve your pain and take the extra stress off of your spine and back. Grade 1 and 2 can be managed conservatively, while grade 3 and 4 require surgical intervention. you may need to discuss your complete medical history and your current health status so that right and effective medical consultation can be provided.
Thanks.

Stand tall, against a wall if needed.
Tuck your chin slightly and bring your head back directly over your shoulders.
Feel as if you're bringing your shoulder blades back and down. Hold this position for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Take a break if you begin to feel pain.

If there is no pain. Then do not worry about it. Because if body is feeling something abnormal it will give pain or some sort of sickness. And you are nt facing any then just do yoga.
