Does balloon angioplasty hurt or are you out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Angioplasty ? Pain: Typically light sedation is given during angioplasty. Most of the time no pain is felt though occasionally there is a little pain felt when the balloon expands in the artey; it is not generally something patients describe as a problem with the procedure.
