I'm experiencing some pain on the left side of my chest and in my left arm. Its not really intense but it does come and go. Could you tell me what might be causing this and what I should do about it?

The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to angina or heart-related issues. It is important to seek medical attention for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 81mg to help with chest pain. The recommended dosage is one tablet daily. Additionally, Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets can also be used for chest pain relief. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.4 mg placed under the tongue for quick effect. Remember, these are temporary measures and it is crucial to see a healthcare professional for further assessment.
