Post Bypass Surgery Chest Pain
Hi, My father had a Bypass Surgery 12 weeks ago.
Recently, 10 days back he is facing pain around chest.
And it happens mostly when he sit straight or forward leaning position. If he sit little bit leaning backwards pain reduces.
As he noticed it doesn't seems related to heart. We visited hospital too. On check up X-Ray & Eco (Ecardiography) reports, are fine (test performed last week).
Please suggest what could be reason for the pain ?
