Heart Disease Treatment in Amravati: Medicines, Procedures and Follow-up

By Dr. Pavan Agrawal, Interventional Cardiologist, Amravati · Updated · 2 min read

Treatment of heart disease depends on the problem. For many people it begins with medicines and lifestyle changes; some need a procedure. This guide explains the usual steps.

Step 1: find out what is wrong

The cardiologist asks about your symptoms, examines you and may advise an ECG, echo, TMT, blood tests or angiography. See ECG, echo and TMT compared.

Step 2: treatment options

  • Lifestyle: stopping tobacco, a heart-healthy diet, regular walking, weight and sleep
  • Medicines: to control blood pressure, cholesterol, sugar, heart rhythm or to protect the heart. Take them exactly as prescribed
  • Procedures: angioplasty with a stent can open a blocked artery
  • Surgery: some people need bypass surgery. See stent or bypass.

Step 3: follow-up

Heart disease is usually long-term. Regular check-ups, keeping your medicines going and watching for new symptoms protect your heart. Read life after a stent or heart attack.
