Brief Answer:
You will need Stenting

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
You will need angioplasty in LAD where there is 90% stenosis. After angioplasty, if you have symptoms like chest pain then you ll probably need angioplasty in RCA also. At this point you ll need Stenting to LAD only.
Also medicine to prevent further blockages and attack should be consumed on regular basis. Drug class include antiplatelets , statins, Metoprolol, ace inhibitor etc depending upon echo report.
Also You should have a healthy lifestyle like avoiding fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly. Regular exercises like brisk walking, jogging according your capacity atleast 30 min a day and 5 days a week. Lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits, fish once or twice a week, avoid meat. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. There shouldn't abdominal fat deposition or obesity. Get your lipid profile and sugars tested once..
