Answer preview

Several procedures help people with coronary heart disease to cope and lead normal lives. One of the most common is graft surgery, which reduces the arteries’ thinning (Malakar et al., 2019). Quitting smoking contributes a great deal to the success of the surgery because it ensures that the arteries do not shrink again. Ingestion of medicine for CAD and counseling equally help a person’s journey to quit smoking (Kamceva et al., 2016). In conclusion, treatment for coronary artery disease lowers the risk of heart attack caused by smoking and helps a person lead a better life.
