View allI'm really worried about my husband. He had a heart attack on February 6, 2017, and only one artery was opened during the angioplasty. He was on a ventilator and an IBP machine for four days. Then he had a CABG on March 9, 2017. Since then, he's been having this stiff feeling at the back of his head and constant pain there. What could be causing this, and should we be concerned?

I've been having this uncomfortable pain just below my left breast, and it's only on one side. I've started working out recently. Could this just be muscle pain from exercising, or should I be worried about something else?
The pain you are experiencing below your left breast could be musculoskeletal in nature due to your workout routine. However, it is important to rule out any other potential causes such as costochondritis or even cardiac issues. To help alleviate the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for muscle pain. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area and avoiding strenuous exercise that exacerbates the pain may also be helpful. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been feeling some movement on the left side of my chest, and I've already had an ECG and a 2D echo done. The ECG showed sinus tachycardia, probably because I was feeling anxious at that moment, along with right axis deviation and a borderline result. But the 2D echo came back normal. I'm also checking my heart rate often to see if it's palpitations, but it's normal, around 70-80. I'm not sure what's causing these movementscould it be gas or maybe something to do with nerve movements? What do you think?
It sounds like you are experiencing some discomfort in your left side chest area. Based on your ECG and 2D echo reports, it is good to know that your heart seems to be functioning normally. The sinus tachycardia with right axis deviation and borderline ECG findings may be related to your anxiety at that moment. Since your heart rate is normal (around 70-80), the movements you are feeling in your chest may not be related to palpitations. It is possible that the discomfort could be due to gas or muscle movements. To help with the discomfort, you can try taking an antacid like **Ranitidine** 150mg for gas relief. Additionally, you can also consider taking a muscle relaxant like **Cyclobenzaprine** 10mg to help with any muscle spasms that may be causing the movements in your chest. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for these medications and if the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
