Question
I was diagnosed with coronary artery disease at the hospital, ischemic heart disease. The doctor prescribes medication to relieve angina. The doctor told me that if it hurts, take this prescription to the pharmacy to buy and drink, no need to see any more. The scan was done in 2014, and in 2018 he did not have a coronary angiogram. At this time, the left chest pain is often painful, the medicine is relieved, the pain is gone after the medicine is over, the blood pressure is over 140. So, the chest pain caused by the myocardium, ischemia, should take the medicine according to the prescription or go to the doctor?

Hello! Coronary myocardium is caused by a number of myocardial fibers lying "crossing" over the epicardial coronary artery. When these muscle fibers contract, they narrow the coronary arteries and can cause chest pain. When there are symptoms of chest pain, the patient needs to take medicine as prescribed by a specialist.
So, with the question “chest pain due to glomerulonephritis, ischemia, should I take prescription drugs or go to the doctor? "It's best to go to a hospital or clinic that specializes in Cardiology so that the doctor can examine and have an appropriate treatment regimen. You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System for more specific advice from doctors.
