Hello there. I can understand your concern. There is nothing that can be done from this platform. Surgery is his only option to relieve the obstruction. Talk to his surgeon about it at the hospital itself. He will be knowing better because he has seen the reports and all. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
