I'm feeling this strange beating sensation on the left side of my chest, close to my heart. What could be causing this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The sensation you are experiencing could be due to palpitations. Palpitations are feelings that your heart is skipping a beat, fluttering, or beating too hard or too fast. In this case, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. However, if the palpitations are occasional and not associated with any other symptoms, you can try over-the-counter medication like Propranolol at a dose of 10-40mg as needed to help reduce the sensation. Remember to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the package

View allI'm really worried about what to do if a family member, like my mom or dad, ever has chest pain, starts sweating a lot, or has pain in the arm or shoulder. What if they start vomiting too? I mean, in that moment, can I give them aspirin or sorbitrate? And if so, how much should I give? Could you explain how to properly administer it? I'm a bit anxious about this and not really sure about the right steps.
tab sorbitrate 5 mg ,sublingual is advised.
