I just found out there are blockages in both arteries on the left and right sides of my heart. The doctor said they're about 6 to 8 months old. Should I be worried about how old these blockages are and what kind of treatment is usually recommended for this? I'm feeling a bit anxious about what this means for my health going forward.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've noticed this nerve in my left palm beating, and I'm not sure if it's something dangerous. I had an ASD device closure recently, and I'm wondering if this might be related. I have a 3-year-old child, so I just want to make sure everything's okay. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
Nerve beating or throbbing in the palm of your left hand can be due to various reasons such as nerve compression, inflammation, or even stress. Since you recently had an ASD device closure, it is important to monitor this symptom closely. To help alleviate the nerve beating, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a topical pain relief cream containing diclofenac can also help. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Could a heart hole that my cousin had as a baby still be an issue now that he's 14 years old? Should we be worried about any lingering effects, or is it likely that it closed up on its own over time?
It is possible that your cousin still has a heart hole, also known as a congenital heart defect. To determine if the hole is still present, he would need to undergo medical evaluation, which may include imaging tests such as an echocardiogram. Treatment options for a heart hole may include medications such as aspirin or blood thinners, and in some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary. It is important for your cousin to follow up with a cardiologist for further assessment and management.
