Recovery rate after angioplasty
Hi All, 3 months ago father had a heart attack following which a stent was placed inside a 100% blocked lad. Today after a check up, doctor said the recovery is 40% which is same as before. My question is how long will it take to recover? Also, he has severe dry cough. After a x ray doctor confirmed that there is a little phlegm build up in lungs which is not good for heart after angioplasty. I'm scared now. Pls confirm if this is normal Or alarming ?

Get him admitted in a hospital. He may need IV antibiotics based on blood investigations.
