How long does chest discomfort last after stent placement?

I had a heart stent placement 2 days ago. I still have chest discomfort. Is it okay?

You should be on beta blockers such as propranolol, the dose may have to be increased. Also, a calcium channel blocker such as Amlodipine may have to be added. You are having vasospasms.
