Question 1

I'm really concerned because I had COVID about three months ago, and although Im better now, my chest still feels pretty heavy sometimes. At the beginning, my left hand felt numb, and I had palpitations, so I took Corbis 2.5 for about 10 days. The palpitations seem to be okay now, but the heaviness in my chest is still there, especially if I try to work out or lift heavy things. The intensity has decreased a bit, but it's still noticeable. I've had a bunch of tests like ECG, ECHO, D-dimer, CKMB, TNI, BNP, MYO, a chest X-ray, and PFT, all of which came back normal. Lately, Ive noticed that if I press on my chest, I hear a crackling sound like when you crack your knuckles. What could be causing this and what should I do about it?

Accepted Answer

That could be due to costochondritis,no need to worry take adequate rest and do breating excercises and also do use flexon tablet when you have severe pain

Question 2

I'm really curious about what my ideal resting heart rate should be. I'm overweight and just started working out. Will my resting heart rate improve as I lose weight? What types of exercises would you recommend to make sure I don't stress my heart too much while trying to get to a healthier resting heart rate?

Accepted Answer

normal Heart rate is 60 -90bpm

Question 3

Im experiencing some pain in the lower part of my breastbone on the left side of my chest, and it's getting worse when I exhale. What should I do? Could you give me some advice?

Accepted Answer

take ecg and confirm

I'm a bit confused and worried about my recent 2D echo results. It says my EF is 56, but everything else seems normal. Is this EF number something to be concerned about or is it within the normal range? Just wanted to make sure I understand what this means for my heart health.

Your EF (Ejection Fraction) of 56% is considered normal. An EF between 50-70% is generally considered normal for a healthy adult. No treatment is usually required for a normal EF.
