I had bypass surgery 7 years ago but now I'm having chest pain again could it be related to my past surgery or something new happening? What should I do about it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Chest pain after bypass surgery, even years later, can be a cause for concern and warrants medical evaluation. It could be related to the surgery, such as graft narrowing, or due to new heart issues. Don't ignore the pain; consult your doctor immediately to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.

View allI'm currently taking two medications, amlodipine besylate 2.5 mg and hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg, to manage my blood pressure. I was thinking about starting a dietary vitamin supplement and I'm worried if there could be any interactions with these meds. Can you give me some advice on whether I should be cautious about combining them?
Vitamin D supplements are generally safe to take with amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide. However, it is always best to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement to ensure there are no potential interactions with your current medications.

My grandfather, who's around 75, has been experiencing some discomfort in the upper left side of his chest just above his heart. He thinks it's probably related to acidity. The pain started just a few hours ago, and he's not on any regular medication. Should we be worried about this being something more serious? What would you recommend we do next?

I'm a bit confused and worried because even though my TMT and ECG tests from 4 months ago were normal, I still feel a slight pain in my left arm and chest. I rarely drink, maybe just some wine occasionally, and I don't smoke. My blood test and chest X-ray came back normal, and I don't have any blood pressure or other health issues. What could be going on?
Considering your symptoms and ineffective response to Novamox 500, you may want to consider alternative antibiotics. However, *always consult your doctor before switching medications*. _Augmentin 625 Duo vs. Azithral 500_ Both are effective antibiotics, but: 1. *Augmentin 625 Duo*: A broad-spectrum antibiotic, often prescribed for tonsillitis. It's a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. 2. *Azithral 500*: A macrolide antibiotic, also effective against tonsillitis. Azithromycin is often prescribed for 3-5 days. Azithral 500 might be a better option if: - You're allergic to penicillin (Augmentin contains amoxicillin, a penicillin-type antibiotic) - Your tonsillitis is caused by a macrolide-sensitive bacterium However, *your doctor should determine the best course of treatment* based on your medical history, allergy status, and the severity of your symptoms.
