I'm a bit concerned about the results from my recent cardiac reports. Everything came back normal except the echocardiography, which indicated a mild mitral prolapse. Should I be worried about this?

Mild mitral valve prolapse is usually not a cause for concern and often does not require treatment. It is important to follow up with your doctor for regular check-ups to monitor your heart health. If you experience symptoms such as chest pain, palpitations, or shortness of breath, you should consult your doctor. No specific medication is required for mild mitral valve prolapse.

I had an angioplasty on February 14th, and they did it through my right arm. It's still hurting, and I can't stretch it properly. I've taken painkillers, but the pain just wont go away. What can I do about this?

Its common to experience pain and discomfort in the arm after an angioplasty, especially if the procedure was done through the arm. I recommend following up with your doctor to ensure there are no complications. In the meantime, gentle stretching and using a warm compress might help ease the pain.
