I just got a message from my Dad, his doctor told him that he has to have surgery because he has hardening of the arteries in his legs. Medical jellies, what can you tell me about this?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Heard about this I think, so here are some claims I cannot back up with references. Something to do with cholesterol, bad bloodflow causes the arteries to petrify and become insanely dangerous, things need to be removed obviously. I think my dad might have had hardening arteries in his leg after they did a bypass with some of his leg arteries. If so that would be where I know it from. Wiki confirms most of this.
