I've been having this uncomfortable pain just below my left breast, and it's only on one side. I've started working out recently. Could this just be muscle pain from exercising, or should I be worried about something else?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The pain you are experiencing below your left breast could be musculoskeletal in nature due to your workout routine. However, it is important to rule out any other potential causes such as costochondritis or even cardiac issues. To help alleviate the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for muscle pain. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area and avoiding strenuous exercise that exacerbates the pain may also be helpful. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned about my husband. We checked his blood pressure yesterday, and it was 13392 with a heart rate of 82. Hes not really having any major problems, but lately, he sometimes feels a burning sensation in his chest and a very minor, frequent pain. He does exercise regularly. He's 33 years old now, and about two years ago, his BP was 12080, then last year it was 13080. Do you think we should be worried or get some tests done?
The blood pressure reading of 13392 is slightly elevated, especially the diastolic pressure of 92. Given the history of occasional burning in the chest and minor frequent pain, it would be advisable for your husband to undergo a thorough evaluation. I recommend he consult with a healthcare provider for further assessment. It would be beneficial to perform tests such as an ECG (Electrocardiogram) to assess heart function, as well as blood tests to check for any underlying conditions such as cholesterol levels or thyroid function. Additionally, a stress test may be considered to evaluate his heart's response to physical activity. In the meantime, it is important to continue with regular exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
