I've been having this slight pain in my left chest for the past three days and it's starting to worry me. What should I do?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
This chest pain could be due to various reasons, including muscle strain, acid reflux, or even heart-related issues. However, it's important to rule out any serious conditions. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and appropriate management.

View allI'm kind of worried because I'm experiencing this heaviness in my chest and sometimes have trouble breathing. Plus, there's this pain that hits suddenly, not all the time, but it can come out of nowhere. Should I be concerned?
The intermittent heaviness in your chest, breathing difficulties, and sudden pains may indicate underlying conditions such as angina, acid reflux, asthma, or anxiety attacks; to determine the cause, consult a cardiologist or a primary care physician for a thorough evaluation, including a physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), and possibly imaging tests like an echocardiogram or a chest X-ray.

I'm really worried about my dad who's 55 and has diabetes and high blood pressure. He went for a cardiac check-up about 10 days ago. The ECG came back abnormal but the 2D echo was normal, and the TMT report was positive. They started him on clopitab 75mg along with his regular meds for BP and diabetes, and now they've advised an angiogram. But here's the thing, he has no chest pain or symptoms, and he walks daily. I'm wondering if a CT angio might be a better option since it uses barium dye, and if the calcium score is negative, wed know theres less risk for a cardiac arrest. Could you give me some advice on this?

I had a heart attack from smoking back in March 2017 and found out my left main artery was 100% blocked. I'm on meds like Roustor, GoldPlanep, and Skelexon now. Is it possible for medication to completely reverse the blockage? How can I find out if it's really reversed?
