I'm worried about my father. He had angioplasty just yesterday, and now he's got this pain running from the middle of his leg down to his ankle. Is that something to be concerned about, or is it normal after angioplasty?

Pain from the mid-leg to the ankle after an angioplasty could be due to several factors, such as the site of catheter insertion (usually the femoral artery in the groin) or the use of a vascular closure device. While mild discomfort and bruising can be normal, significant pain should be evaluated to rule out complications like hematoma, arterial injury, or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Please consult your father's healthcare provider promptly to assess the cause of the pain and ensure appropriate management.

I've been diagnosed with coronary artery disease and have triple vessel disease, along with type 2 diabetes. I just got my reports back, and they mention something about "good LV systolic." Can you help me understand what that means? Should I be worried about these findings? I'm trying to wrap my head around all these terms and what they mean for my health.
