I'm wondering if an ECG can actually detect angina? I mean, should I be getting an ECG for just a minor or dull chest pain, even if I don't have any other symptoms?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It is recommended to get an ECG if there are symptoms of angina or any other heart-related issues. The frequency of ECGs may vary depending on individual risk factors and medical history. It is best to follow your doctor's advice on how often you should get an ECG. In case of minor or dull pain, do we need an ECG without having any other symptoms? Yes, even minor or dull chest pain should not be ignored, especially if it is recurring. It is advisable to consult a healthcare professional who may recommend an ECG to rule out any underlying heart issues, including angina.

View allI'm 32 and recently had a couple of ECG tests that showed an abnormal ECG reading. The first one mentioned sinus bradycardia and a borderline first-degree AV block IV conduction defect. Then, the next day, my ECG showed abnormal results again, this time with right axis deviation. I'm really concerned about whether this is a normal variation or if the machine could have made an error? Is this something dangerous that I should be worried about? What should I do next? Would love your guidance!
Sinus bradycardia with borderline first degree A-V block and right axis deviation on ECG can indicate certain heart conditions. It is unlikely to be a machine error, but it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In this case, you may need to consult a cardiologist for a detailed assessment and appropriate treatment. The doctor may prescribe medications such as Metoprolol to help regulate your heart rate and rhythm. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for proper management and monitoring of your heart health.

I'm a bit worried after being diagnosed with sinus tachycardia and an incomplete right bundle branch block. The doctor mentioned I should start taking trimetazidine. I'm not sure if it's really necessary or if there might be other options. Could you help me understand if I should go ahead with it?
Sinus tachycardia and Incomplete right bundle branch block are both cardiac conditions that may require treatment to manage symptoms and prevent complications. Trimetazidine is not typically used to treat these conditions. For sinus tachycardia, beta-blockers like Metoprolol can be prescribed to help slow down the heart rate. For Incomplete right bundle branch block, treatment may not be necessary unless there are symptoms or other heart conditions present. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations and discuss any concerns or questions you have about your treatment plan.
