So, my dad had an angioplasty done on October 20th, and while he's getting better, he's been dealing with toothache, something he had before. I'm wondering if he could take a becosule tablet for that. Would that be safe, or might it cause any issues with his heart condition?

Becosule tablet is a multivitamin supplement that contains Vitamin B complex. It is generally safe to take after angioplasty, as Vitamin B complex is important for overall health and well-being. However, it is always best to consult with your father's cardiologist before starting any new medication, including over-the-counter supplements, to ensure there are no potential interactions with his current medications or health condition. If the cardiologist approves, the usual dosage of Becosule tablet for adults is one tablet once daily.

View allI'm really worried about my dad's recent angiography test results. It showed he has a 100% blockage in two arteries and 95% in a third artery, with just one vein working properly. I'm trying to understand if he should consider bypass surgery or angioplasty. Which option is generally more effective for extending lifespan?
For blockages of 100% in two arteries and 95% in the third artery, bypass surgery would be more effective in this case. Bypass surgery involves creating new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle, bypassing the blocked arteries. This can help improve blood flow to the heart and relieve symptoms such as chest pain. It is also known to extend lifespan and reduce the risk of future heart attacks compared to angioplasty. The patient should consult with a cardiac surgeon to discuss the best treatment option and further details regarding the bypass surgery procedure and post-operative care.

I'm a bit confused about my previous diagnosis of mild mitral valve regurgitation. My old doctor assured me everything would be fine, but suggested a check-up around 2017-18 just for peace of mind. Another doctor on Practo agreed there was nothing major to worry about. But, sometimes I still feel something around the valve and it's kind of stuck in the back of my mind. Can you help me find some reputed doctors or clinics in Bangalore to get this checked out? I'd really appreciate any assistance with this.
