CABG Post Operative care
Hello Doctor,
My father has undergone CABG couple of days back in Hinduja Hospital and he's now stable and recovering.
He's complaining pain at chest area (where incision has been done) and has cough also. He gets more pain when coughing. Doctor's are saying this is normal and will go away in sometime.
I'm not sure if there are chest tubes inserted to clear the drain but I can see some tubes and the drain containers so possibly that's the same.
He's been given incentive spirometer also which he's doing.
I'm just taking a second opinion here on post operative care.
