Hi,
I am Nikhil and want to know about my father(age: 63 around). My father went through the angioplasty last year , but from the last 2 months he has been feeling the burning sensation in his legs. he is facing the difficulties in walking also. Currently he is in Meerut now. Kindly guide me what should I do. is it serious or curable.

It doesnot look like anything related to angioplasty. you have not mentioned about his diabetes status, if he has periphheral neuropathy due to poor glucose control. meet your physician for this. It is not very serious. multivitamins, and foot care will help.
