Pulsating veins near the ear can be concerning, and it's important to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg for any discomfort. If the pulsating continues or worsens, please seek medical attention promptly.

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 thinking about getting a smartwatch since they can track heart rate and blood pressure, but I'm a bit skeptical. Do these gadgets actually give accurate readings for heart rate and BP, or should I not rely on them for medical monitoring?

Smartwatches can provide a useful and convenient way to monitor heart rate and blood pressure, but their accuracy can vary. While they can give a general overview, they may not always be as precise as medical-grade equipment. It's best to use them as a supplementary tool rather than a primary source for critical health decisions. For accurate and reliable blood pressure and heart rate measurements, it's important to use validated medical devices and consult with your healthcare provider.

I'm really worried about this ongoing chest pain I've had for the past month. I've done all the testsECG, 2D echo, and TMTand they all came back normal. My lipid profile is borderline though. I can't sleep because of the constant headache and chest pain throughout the day. The only way I'm sleeping is with Restyl 0.25 mg, but the chest pain just won't go away. What should I do next?
