Question 1

I still experience chest pain when I speak loudly, shout, or get angry, and the pain spreads and continues until I lie down or someone rubs my back. I also feel pain while climbing stairs. All tests, including CT Angiography, came back normal, and my cardiologist confirmed no cardiac issues, yet my symptoms persist with no improvement. I am now totally confused about what to do next.

Question 2

Hi, I have been living in Chennai for the past 8 months. My skin is of wheatish complexion, but it has become dull and darker, likely due to the weather. My hands, which are already darker than my overall body tone, have also become very dark. Even when I use sunscreen, I have tried Lotus and Rivela, my face still looks instantly darker. I have also tried various home remedies to remove tan, but they have not worked. I am now considering using dermocosmetic products. Are they effective? Can they provide permanent results in removing the darkness from my skin? Kindly suggest.

Question 3

I am a 32 year old male. My vitamin test report is attached. Please advise. I sometimes feel pain in my spinal cord and numbness in my lower foot and fingers. I do not have diabetes or high blood pressure.

Hi, I am experiencing a burning and needle prick type sensation in my arms, legs, and buttocks. My recent blood tests show Vitamin D level: 19 and Vitamin B12 level: 810. Please advise the possible cause and next steps.

Burning and pinching in arms, legs, and buttocks is often due to nerve irritation or deficiency. Your Vitamin D is low (19), this can cause nerve pain and weakness. Vitamin B12 is good (810), so that is not the issue here. Start Vitamin D supplements and light sun exposure.
