Should swelling still be present 6 months after cardiac stent?

In general, swelling or edema following cardiac stent placement should significantly reduce or resolve within a few weeks to a few months. The timeframe for complete resolution can vary depending on individual healing rates and post-procedure care. However, if swelling persists for six months or more, it is advisable to consult with your doctor to assess the cause and consider any necessary interventions or further evaluation.
