Suggest Remedy For Severe Head Pain Post Angioplasty Surgery
My mother had undergone angioplasty 8 years back but recently she is experiencing pain in head after talking/exerting for some time. Firstly, she experiences heavy breaths and then followed by head pain. Sometimes she experiences head pain without heavy breaths as well. Recently, we took her to hospital for angiography and results are fine. Stents are working fine. We are not able to get the diagnosis right in the first place. Please suggest what could be the possible reason. Her heath functioning is close to 37-40%. She is experiencing pain for the past three to four months.

hi,
thank-you for providing the brief history.
As post angioplasty surgery there is a proper vascular flow and this is a good thing about the angioplasty. Also, as the ageing progresses there will be a degenerative changes in the body leading to slow cardio respiratory endurance and less oxygen supply to head leading to headaches.
In my clinical practice most patients with angioplasty are referred to physical therapy for PTCA cardiac rehabilitation. As EXERCISES help imporve the Cardiorespiratory endurance and also the blood oxygen balance . Also exercises helps on a slow progress for fighting against ageing process as well.
In cardiac rehabilitation free exercises are the initial platform to regain the Cardiorespiratory and muscular blood and oxygen imbalance correction.
In many cases with PTCA cardiac rehabilitation is always a positive approach for overall health status of the patient.
