What Causes Chest Pain?
Hello doctor My dad had chest pain. We did ECHO test and there were no issues identified. The doctor then did an Angiography which shows one blockage. How to go about it. What are the chances that it could not be caught during ECHO. Any alternative to Stem Angioplasty? Please let me know.

1. echo reports do not show blockage its shows only valve status of heart and function of it
2. angiography shows blockage your reports shows that one blockage but how much percentage is blockage is important if it is less than 50 percent than no need to do angioplasty one anti platelet medication( tab clopitab 75 mg and tab ecosprin 150 ) should taken regularly
3. if blockage is more than 50 percent than you should go for angioplasty .
4. Avoid butter and milk product ,fried item ,oily product ,bakery product .
5. Do regular excersise and follow diet .
