How Soon Can I Involve In Physical Activity Having Stents Placed?
Its been 10 days since I had my stent placed in the lower right artery for 80% blockage I did not have a heart attack. Now I am wondering how long do I have to wait to excercise and play golf again. I am 59 if that helps any I can't afford the cardio rehab they wanted to do insurance doesn't pay enough and I am unemployeed right now.

Hi,
For elective angioplasty, we allow our patients to go for mild exercise after a week & all normal routine after a month including playing golf.
Thanks
