I've been feeling this weird vibration in my left chest, and it only lasts for like 1 or 2 seconds before it stops on its own. I'm not really sure what could be causing it or how to make it go away. Could you tell me what might be going on and if there's anything I can do to stop it?

Feeling vibrations in the left chest that stop within 1 to 2 seconds could be due to premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), which are extra, abnormal heartbeats that begin in the ventricles. To help manage PVCs, you can try reducing stress and anxiety, avoiding caffeine and nicotine, and ensuring you stay hydrated. In some cases, if PVCs are frequent or bothersome, a doctor may prescribe a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help regulate the heart rhythm.
