Blockage in arteries

2020-07-25 06:45:30
I had high bad cholesterol (LDL 293). After some medicines (roseday 10), diet and excercise my bad cholesterol has been reduced to normal level. I assume that generally blockages in arteries present due to high bad cholesterol, so now my bad cholesterol has been reduced, so there will be no blockages in arteries right ?

Right, But you need to address other risk factors for Coronary artery disease ( Blockage) that includes smoking, hypertension,  diabetes  any family history of IHD and presence of any effort angina or Dyspnea on exertion... Anyways at your age if above symptoms or risk factors are absent just need not worry... Maintain a good lifestyle Dr Vipul Verma Clinical Cardiologist

Hello, By reducing cholesterol levels you are just reducing the risk of heart artery blocks. If you do not have any symptoms like breathing difficulty or dizziness or palpitations or sweating or chest tightness then do not worry. If you have symptoms then get your ECG ECHO TMT done and report Take care
