A member asked:

5 days ago i had angioplasty with stenting in leg. now i am having pain in the upper part of my leg. is that normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pain after stent.: Is that area tender? Is there swelling? With this finding, you may want to follow-up with the vascular doctor who performed the procedure.
