Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can I can understand your concern.
Yes, this is matter of concerned and you're should consult cardiologist for him.
Ecg is just screening test forward heart diseases.
Ischemia on ecg is suggestive of coronary artery disease (blockage in coronary artery).
Lateral denotes Lateral wall involvement. Lateral walls of heart are supplied by right coronary artery.
So he is mostly having blockage in right coronary artery.
But we need to confirm this.
So immediately consult cardiologist and get done
1. Stress test
2. 2d echo.
3. Coronary angiography.
He my need stenting of blocked coronary artery and cardiac supportive drugs.
Don't worry, he will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
