I just got a new Dr. Morepen pulse oximeter and while checking my heart rate and oxygen levels, it showed a message about a suspected occasional short pulse interval. Should I be concerned about this? I had a mild Covid infection last year and experienced some palpitations afterward, which have since improved over time. After recovering, I did a holter monitor test that was normal except for Sinus Arrhythmia, which my doctor said was normal. My Echo test in October also came back normal. I often check my pulse rate and oxygen because of occasional palpitations since the Covid infection. Do you think I need more tests because of this short pulse interval message?

I've been having chest pain on the left side whenever I sleep on my left side, but it doesn't hurt when I switch to the right side. There aren't any other symptoms, just this pain. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
This type of chest pain that occurs with certain movements or positions, such as when lying on the left side, can sometimes be related to musculoskeletal issues or inflammation of the chest wall. To help relieve the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the painful area may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been experiencing this weird sensation in the middle of my chest after I do just 10 minutes of exercise. It's not really painful, but it feels like a squeezing. Do you have any idea why this might be happening? I'm a bit worried.
take one pain killer and antacid if it reduces pain then its ok. Otherwise do one ECG
