Hi Prince... He needs to take good amount of antioxidants, take less junk food and oily food,. No Bypass is not the only solution... It can be treated by homoeopathic medicines also.. The success rate of surgery is questionable... as in many studies... with or without surgery the death rate has remained same...

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. When the arterial blocks are extensive, by pass is the best option. Even a person has diabetes, it is possible to get the surgery done with strict control of blood glucose. Now a days these surgeries have hardly any complications. In really good hospitals under the top cardiac surgeons, results are excellent. Thanks.
