I'm having this annoying pricking pain just below my left shoulder and around the center of my left breast. It's happened three times today, and each time it comes and goes. I'm freaking out a bit here, could this have something to do with my heart?

View allI got an ECG done yesterday and it shows a slight ST depression in V3. Should I be concerned about this? I've been feeling a bit uncomfortable on the extreme left side of my chest, which is why I went for the ECG in the first place. There aren't any other pains or symptoms bothering me. By the way, I took the test about 40 minutes after finishing a workout at the gym - would that have any impact on the results?
Slight ST depression on an ECG can sometimes be a normal variant, especially if you have no other symptoms. However, given your symptoms of chest discomfort and the timing of the ECG after a workout, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. I recommend you take a low dose of Aspirin 75mg for now to prevent any clot formation and consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

What is normal blood pressure by age?
In earlier times, Blood pressure was defined according to age. With all the new research data, Hypertension is defined only by increase in numbers in blood pressure which applies similarly for all adults above 18 years of age. Normal blood pressure is a reading less than 120/80 mm Hg. Any reading above 120/80 mm Hg checked consequently for three days needs a doctor's opinion.
