A member asked:
Can i kickbox if i had a stent placed in my heart weeks ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely Yes: There are restrictions in the first 5-7 days because of the entry site (usually femoral artery). Unless you have had recent myocardial injury (heart attack), abnormal lv function (chf), or other cardiac condition you should have no restrictions 1 week after a stent. Check with your doc about your specific restrictions.
