Can you work after a heart stent?

You can work after stenting the heart, but you can’t do heavy physical work to prevent the friction between the stent and the blood vessel from causing rupture of the vessel and other adverse events. After coronary intervention, appropriate regular exercise should be done under the guidance of professional doctors to help keep the lumen of coronary arteries open. The activity level after ischemic side branch vessel growth should be based on the preoperative physical condition, activity habits, post-surgical cardiac condition, and the environment in which it takes place. Aerobic exercise such as walking, health exercise, playing tai chi, etc. is advocated after cardiac stenting, paying attention to the fact that exercise must be appropriate and avoiding unsuitable strenuous exercise. In terms of diet, we should mix meat and vegetables, avoid spicy and stimulating food, drink more water, and don’t stay up late and work hard. Regular review, if any discomfort in time to consult the doctor.
