I'm really worried because I've been having chest pain whenever I move around for about a year now. I even had a chest CT scan done, but the doctor said everything looked normal. I'm confused about what could be causing this pain, especially since it seems to be worse in the morning. Any thoughts on what might be going on?

View allMy echo showed mild mitral valve prolapse with trivial mitral regurgitation and trivial tricuspid regurgitation but no mitral stenosis. The doctor said there's a slight issue with my heart valve and prescribed nucoxia, pantocide, amixide, and liv52. They mentioned I'll be okay but I still get symptoms sometimes. Is this condition curable or will I eventually need surgery?

I've been noticing these splinter hemorrhages under my fingernails again, and it's making me worried. I had endocarditis when I was 16 and needed antibiotics through a pic line and heart surgery for mitral valve repair when I turned 18. I'm 23 now and these hemorrhages keep showing up just like before. I'm really concerned it could be related to my past condition. What do you think I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing recurrent splinter hemorrhages, which can be a concerning sign given your history of endocarditis and heart surgery. To address this issue, I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to evaluate the possibility of endocarditis recurrence or any other underlying causes. In the meantime, you can consider taking antibiotics such as Amoxicillin 500mg twice daily for a week to prevent any potential infection from worsening. Additionally, maintaining good nail hygiene and avoiding trauma to the nails can help prevent further splinter hemorrhages.
