I've been experiencing this strange sensation in my chest, almost like there's an airlock or something, but it's not painful. It's more of a discomfort, especially when I'm trying to sleep. Is this something I should be worried about?

I'm really worried about why so many people under 30, both guys and girls, seem to be getting cardiac arrests lately. What's going on, and how can we protect ourselves from this happening? I've had my 2D echo done and it came out normal, but should I still be concerned about this?

Cardiac arrest in young individuals can be caused by various factors such as genetic predisposition, underlying heart conditions (such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy), substance abuse (such as cocaine or stimulant use), infections, and structural abnormalities of the heart. To prevent cardiac arrest, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, managing stress, and getting regular check-ups with your healthcare provider. Since your 2D echo is normal, it is a good sign that your heart is functioning well. However, it is still important to continue with a healthy lifestyle and regular check-ups to monitor your heart health and prevent any potential issues in the future.

I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.
