I've been feeling a sharp pin-like pain on the left side of my chest, close to my armpit, and it's moving towards my shoulder blade. I've been dealing with cervical spondylosis, so I'm not sure if it's related to that. This started yesterday and happened before, but usually, it goes away in a few hours. This time it's been almost a day and it's still bothering me. I'm also noticing a burning sensation in my throat. What do you think might be going on here?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to your cervical spondylosis. The pain traveling from your left side of the chest near the armpit to your shoulder blade could be due to nerve compression or irritation in the cervical spine. The burning feeling in your throat may be related to acid reflux or irritation of the esophagus. To help with the pain and burning sensation, you can take a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) like ibuprofen. I recommend taking ibuprofen 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, you can try using a heating pad on the affected area to help relax the muscles and alleviate discomfort. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management of your cervical spondylosis and associated symptoms.

I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing a fast heartbeat after I climb stairs or if I'm walking in the sun for just about 10 minutes. Even while cleaning a room, my heart rate seems to go up rapidly. I'm 20 years old, weigh about 65 kg, and I'm 5.4 inches tall. Could you tell me what might be going on?
A fast heart rate after climbing stairs or walking in the sunlight is often due to your body's increased demand for oxygen during physical activity: Climbing stairs: When you climb stairs, your heart works harder to pump blood to your muscles, which increases your heart rate. This is called sinus tachycardia, which is a symptom, not a condition. Sunlight: Physical activity can cause your heart rate to increase.

I'm a 20-year-old guy, and I've been dealing with some health stuff thats freaking me out a bit. Out of nowhere, Ill get hit with high blood pressure, anxiety, and then it just snowballs into feeling nauseous, sweating, and I start having trouble breathing. It's really unsettling, and Im starting to worry. What do you think could be going on, and what should I do about it?
You can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) for high blood pressure and anxiety. The recommended dosage is 25-100 mg per day. For nausea, you can take Ondansetron (brand name: Zofran) 4-8 mg every 8 hours as needed. Additionally, you can use Albuterol inhaler (brand name: ProAir) for breathlessness as needed. It is important to monitor your symptoms closely and follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
