Been back to hospital they are happy the blood is flowing ..!!Huhhhhhh. Wat about the pain. I thought after 7 days you could go back to work.He takes oxycotton for back pain and now penadine forte an endone and still that don t kill the pain
Hi, thank you for providing the brief history. As post stunt there is pain and swelling of the leg and feet I think a thorough clinical examination of the limbs and heart is required. Also, post stent due to better venous blood flow is present compared to past there needs an attention to the cardiac and venous system again. As the pain and swelling shouldn't happen post the stent but if it has occurred than a thorough examination will help understand if any other clot is compromising the blood flow.
