Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I take medicine regularly to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medicine. Is it simple to treat pulmonary embolism?Doctor's answer:
Pulmonary embolism is an acute disease that is not very treatable. Timely treatment is necessary for a possible complete recovery. If the delay in treatment is too long, or if the pulmonary embolism is severe or recurs as a large-scale embolism, it can easily lead to respiratory failure, then cardiac and pulmonary failure, and ultimately cause the patient to be on the brink of death. Your condition is relatively good; after treatment, you have recovered quite well. Whether you can completely recover depends on careful observation in the future.
