Can you do heavy work after cardiac stenting?

After cardiac stenting, heavy work is not recommended for a short period of time. Physical activity is recommended to be gradual, with a gradual increase in exercise. Cardiac stenting is common in patients with coronary artery disease, acute coronary syndromes, and in chronic stable coronary artery disease where there is evidence of myocardial ischemia, and coronary artery imaging reveals severe coronary artery stenosis, which is why cardiac stenting is given as a relevant treatment. Patients with coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndromes often have myocardial damage, so for the acute stage as well as the newly discharged from the hospital, heavy physical activity is not recommended to avoid inducing the occurrence of malignant events. Chronic stable coronary artery disease exists with fixed, severe stenosis of the coronary arteries, and after stent implantation is given, it is also necessary to carry out activities in a gradual manner rather than heavy physical activity.
