What Causes Swelling In Chest After Bypass Surgery?

My husband got bypass surgery done 4 months back. Now he is getting swelling and pain on leftside of the chest. It remains for sometime and reduces. this repeats day and night manytimes. What is the reason for this? He is 66 years old. All his reports are normal except ECG. Can you kindly tell me what is the reason for this ?

HI
Thank for asking t HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that what actually you have noticed may not be the chest swelling but could be nonspecific type of chest appearance and this is nothing to worry because if this is asymptomatic then no why to worry about this, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
