How To Treat The Swollen Left Side After A Cardiac Cath?
I had a cardiac cath on Monday in the left groin and did okay. Yesterday I felt weak but okay. Tonight I am having trouble standing up and the left side seems swollen. My temp is 97.7. I feel a little tight in the chest but that may be my imagination. I am in alot of pain in the groin area.

Dear Sir
Thanks for writing to us.
This may be an emergency. You might have bled from puncture site or the vessel may have developed a clot. Do visit ER or the cardiology facility concerned. This may require immediate attention.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
