Can cervical or anxiety be causing my chest pain? It's been 5 months and although my ECG and X-ray were fine, the chest pain just won't go away. Could it still be related to my heart?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Cervical issues and anxiety can indeed cause chest pain, especially if all cardiac tests like ECG and X-ray have come back normal. The persistent chest pain may be related to musculoskeletal issues or anxiety. To help alleviate the chest pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) as needed for pain and muscle relaxation. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm really concerned about my mom's health. She's 65 and has both blood pressure and sugar issues. She recently had an ECG done, and the report mentions things like Normal sinus rhythm, longitudinal left axis deviation, possible old inferior MI, and some ST depression indicating mild anterolateral and high lateral myocardial ischemia with abnormal T waves. She's currently taking Sartel LN, Revolol XL 50, Plavix 75, Caat 40, Nikoran 5, Diamicron XR 60, and Ziten 20. Can you help me understand what all this means for her and if there's anything specific we should be worried about right now?

I've been experiencing this fluttering or skipped sensation in my chest and it feels like it's coming from the right side of my heart or the middle of my chest. It only lasts for about 2 to 4 seconds. Should I be concerned about this?
