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.

My mother-in-law has been struggling with high cholesterol and she's had two angiograms already. She's also dealing with thyroid issues, diabetes, and high blood pressure. She's been on medication for the last seven years, which has kept everything normal. But last week, her triglyceride levels shot up to 470, and she started feeling chest pain. The doctor ran some tests and added two new tablets, KORANDIL 10 and METAGARD 35, for 15 days. But after taking them, she's been having severe headaches, so she stopped taking the pills. Is there a possibility of changing these tablets with the help of the doctor?
Before changing anything , we will need to check your angiography report , your ECG , and echocardiography reports.. With out that. Changing or stoping medications can be dangerous Also will need the complete list of medications korandil can cause headache but it dialates the small blood vessels in the heart and if you have a significant blockage then you need it or some similar kind of meds..so need all the above mentioned information before any advice
