I have a mild reversible mycardumyocardial ischemia due to muscle bridge lad . is it dangerous & treatment. please?

No: If you are getting chest pains may need some medications .Myocardial bridge is physiological for you since the blood flow to the heart is nor interfered - flow to heart muscle is in diastolic phase of the beating heart You do not have blocked vessels as shown in the pic. vaso spasm possible . so calcium channel blockers may be suggested.discuss with doctor

Talk to cardiologist: A muscle bridge is a strap of muscle running over the top of the artery. When the muscle contracts it squeezes down on the artery and narrows it causing reduced blood flow to that part of your heart. It can cause angina. If it is a threat - treatment would be to cut the band. The other option may be medication. Since the diagnosis has been made-discussion with your cardiologist is the plan.
