My dad had some trouble with his breathing yesterday, so we rushed him to the hospital, and they said it's mitral stenosis. I'm really worried. Is this something serious? What steps should we be taking now?

View allI'm experiencing some discomfort and I'm a bit worried. I've had pain on my left chest and left hand for about a week now. I went for a check-up, did an ECG and cholesterol test, but nothing was found. The doctor mentioned it might be a muscle problem and gave me some medicine. However, I still feel this glittering sensation on my left chest and arm. And when I go to the bathroom, it takes a lot of effort and makes me uncomfortable. There's also some swelling around my left chest and near my left hand. Can you help me understand what might be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing muscle pain and possibly some inflammation in the chest and left hand. The glittering sensation could be due to nerve irritation. The difficulty in passing stool may be related to muscle strain or weakness. I recommend taking a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) 10mg twice daily for muscle pain. Additionally, you can take an anti-inflammatory medication like Ibuprofen 400mg three times a day for the inflammation. For the swelling, you can try applying a cold compress and elevating the affected area. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm really worried about my brother. He's been having some chest discomfort and mild pain that sometimes happens on the left side and other times in the center. He gets really nervous, and his heart rate spikes to around 90-98 bpm when this happens, but when he's more relaxed, it goes back down to about 68-72 bpm. He runs on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes at least five days a week and doesn't feel any discomfort during that time. Although he has an acidity and GERD problem, he's finished his course of medication and isn't taking any other tablets. His sugar and blood pressure are normal, and chest X-rays came back fine, with an orthopaedic saying it's nothing serious and just suggesting vitamins. He also feels pain at certain points when the chest is pressed. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if it could be his heart, acidity, muscular, or maybe even a nerve issue. Do you think an angiography would be necessary given his normal reports so far?
Since all the reports are normal ,advised a psychiatric opinion for diagnosis of anxiety and other conditions..

I keep waking up with chest pain in the morning. I've already had an ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-rays, and everything came back normal. I'm currently taking acidity tablets. Sometimes I even feel a pinning sensation in my chest. Do you have any advice on how I can make this pain go away?
