Tingling in head and pain in gums

2018-05-17 20:05:34
My father had gone through open surgery  and doctor had replaced a damaged aortic and mitral valve with a metallic  valve. He is taking acetrom 2mg/3 mg tablet regularly. From last one week he is having tingling and numbness in his head and pain on left side of his face. His PT/INR value was around 4.5 when we checked last time a month ago.  Will this be a serious problem?

INR is beyond the recommended range. You need to consult for adjusting dosage of acitrom. You will also need to undergo a detailed neurological evaluation and if necessary brain imaging to explain left facial pain. It is better to get a consultation as early as possible. Best regards.
