A reader asks if scar tissue after myocardial infarction can fail to heal and cause ongoing pain. Dr Molner explains persistent pain can reflect angina-like activity from a damaged heart muscle and may be triggered by exertion or emotional stress, with management by pacing activity and handling triggers. He notes digestion and timing of exertion affect pain and advises gradual adjustment of living habits after a heart attack. He also clarifies spleen removal is not dangerous for a 68 year old man.
