A member asked:
What do you suggest if my left lat muscle was cut during heart surgery when i was 17 days old..?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cardiology Consult: Not sure which muscle you are referring to, but if you are concerned about any long-term effects on your heart, consider seeing a cardiologist who can literally test your heart to see if their was any permanent damage. The cardiologist can also determine if your early heart surgery corrected whatever problems were present at birth.
