Dear sah
It is common to prescibe nitro for chest pains that are due to coronary artery disease or if there is a suspicion of coronary artery disease (until further testing is done). Nitro would not do much for MVP related problems.
I hope this has been useful. I wish you the best of luck. Feel free to write back.
