I've been experiencing this really uncomfortable feeling where it feels like I'm lifting some heavy weight right in the middle of my chest. It's like this pressure or tightness, and it happens a few times throughout the day. This has been going on for about 20 to 25 days now. I'm starting to get pretty worried. What could be causing this, and is there something serious I should be concerned about?

Lifting heavy weights can sometimes lead to muscle strain or even chest discomfort. The symptoms you are experiencing, such as heaviness at the center of the chest, pressure, and tightness, could be due to musculoskeletal strain or even acid reflux. To alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain and inflammation. Additionally, you can take omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to help with any acid reflux symptoms that may be contributing to your discomfort. Remember to avoid lifting heavy weights until your symptoms improve.

View allI'm just trying to understand what the next steps are for my treatment based on my recent test results. I'm a 62-year-old woman and my 2D Echo Report shows Mild LVH and Mild diastolic dysfunction, with an LVEF at rest of 50. Thankfully, there are no regional wall motion abnormalities, and my RV contractile function is adequate. The report also notes no pulmonary hypertension or pericardial effusion, and no intracardiac clot or vegetation. My chest X-ray mentions a mild unfolding of the aorta but no pluroparenchymal abnormality. Should I be worried about any of these findings, and what kind of treatment might be necessary?
