What Causes Swollen Redness In The Legs After Placing Coronary Stents?
My husband has 17 stents in his heart....he has been working on his semi trailer this week putting cross members under the trailer floor. Tonight his legs are swollen & red...I m worried. Blood pressure was 147/78 pulse 78 but he always has very bad heart beat. It has been that way for some time now, should he just elavate his legs tonight until bedtime?

he should get his echo done to see how much his heart is working?
Get his renal function done?
Urine for albuminuria
There are plenty of causes of swelling in legs,you consult your GP, to rule out its cause and then tk start medications.
