I'm having this sharp pain under my left breast and its been going on for a good five years now. Along with that, I often feel really tired and occasionally get these heart palpitations. Should I be worried about these symptoms?

I've been having this mild chest pain on my left side and sometimes feel pain in my hand too, along with back pain. It's been going on for a while and I've already done two ECGs in the past couple of months; both came back normal. My family doctor thinks it might be because I sit for long hours as an IT professional, but the pain hasn't really gone away. Sometimes my chest still hurts a bit on the left side. What should I do about this?

Based on your symptoms and normal ECG reports, it is possible that your chest pain, left hand pain, and back pain may be related to musculoskeletal issues due to prolonged sitting in front of a laptop. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try the following: 1. Take breaks and stretch regularly while working on your laptop. 2. Maintain a good posture while sitting. 3. Use ergonomic equipment such as a supportive chair and keyboard. 4. Consider physical therapy or exercises to strengthen your back and improve posture. 5. Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen can help with mild pain. 6. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, focus on improving your posture and taking regular breaks to prevent strain on your muscles and joints.

I'm experiencing some left arm pain and dizziness lately, and I also have GERD issues. From time to time, I get this jaw pain too. Could this be something related to my heart? I had a Holter test done back in February and everything seemed normal, but I'm still a bit worried. Would really appreciate your insight on this.

Hey, I'm reaching out because my dad, who's 57, is dealing with some serious mitral regurgitation and his LVEF is just 30. The doctors here have mentioned a MITRACLIP surgery as a possible solution. Could you tell me where in India we can get this surgery done? I'm really worried and just want the best care for him.

"Hi, for mitral regurgitation with low LVEF, MITRACLIP surgery is a good option. In India, you can consider getting the MITRACLIP surgery done at hospitals like Apollo Hospitals, Fortis Hospitals, or Medanta - The Medicity. These hospitals have experienced cardiac surgeons who can perform the procedure successfully. It is important to consult with the cardiologist and surgeon at the chosen hospital to discuss the procedure in detail and plan for the surgery. The dosage and specific brand of medications post-surgery will be prescribed by the treating doctor based on your father's condition."
