My dad is 62 and has been having some real trouble with his breathing. After seeing a doctor, the breathing got a bit better, but he's still coughing a lot. A month later, something strange happenedhe was in bed and suddenly gas was coming out of his mouth, and he had chest pain at the same time. After using the toilet, he felt a little better. Now he's in a hospital in Siliguri, and the doctors there say his heart is a bit weak. I'm thinking about consulting with doctors in South India, but I'm a bit lost on where to go. I heard CMC Vellore has long wait times, and Apollo Chennai is a bit too pricey for us. Can you help suggest the best hospital and doctor in the south for his situation?

I've been experiencing some mild chest pain right in the center of my chest, but it only lasts for a few seconds before it goes away. Should I be worried about this, or could it be something simple?
Mild, intermittent chest pain lasting a few seconds, located in the middle of your chest, may indicate non-cardiac causes such as acid reflux, anxiety, or musculoskeletal issues, but to rule out cardiac conditions like angina or myocardial infarction, it's essential to consult a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation, including an electrocardiogram (ECG), blood tests, and possibly stress tests or imaging studies.
