My mom keeps mentioning that she's experiencing chest and back pain off and on. I'm getting a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could there be any specific reasons for these symptoms that we should look into?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Chest pain and back pain can be caused by a variety of reasons. Some common causes include musculoskeletal issues, such as muscle strain or inflammation. However, more serious conditions like heart problems (such as angina or a heart attack), lung issues (such as pneumonia or a pulmonary embolism), or gastrointestinal problems (such as acid reflux or gallbladder issues) could also be the cause. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis.

View allSo I've been having this cough for the last couple of days and it's making my heart race and flutter, even when I'm trying to sleep. I got some tests done like an ECG, echo, and chest X-ray back in March. Should I be doing all those tests again? Every time I cough, it feels like my heart is either trying to jump out or like it's getting all tight, and it's really freaking me out. There's also this pain now and then, plus twitching in my feet and neck, and it's making me super anxious about my health. Is Benadryl syrup gonna help with all this? I'm also burping a lot, and my heart feels like it's pounding out of my chest. With all those tests coming back normal before, Im just wondering if I need to repeat them. And while I'm at it, what exactly is the main reason people get heart attacks? It's been like this since February, and I'm feeling really low and freaked out. My blood pressure is usually 11090 and my pulse is often above 100. I'm 25, by the way. Any ideas what's up with all this?
The fluttering and pounding sensation in your heart could be related to the increased pulse rate and coughing. Given your history of normal tests in March, it may be beneficial to consult with a doctor for a thorough evaluation. Benadryl syrup may help with some symptoms, but it is important to address the underlying cause. Considering your symptoms and history, it is advisable to try a combination of medications. You can take Benadryl syrup for cough relief and consider taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole 20mg for burping. Additionally, you can take Propranolol 10mg for heart palpitations. However, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication. The main reason for a heart attack can be due to various factors such as smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, lack of physical activity, and stress. It is essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle to reduce the risk of heart attacks, especially at a young age. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly for further evaluation and management.

Hey, I was wondering at what point of heart or coronary artery blockage do doctors usually recommend angioplasty? I've been reading up on it and I'm a bit worried. Appreciate your insights on this!
ngioplasty is recommended depends not just on the percentage of blockage, but also on symptoms, overall heart health, and the location of the blockageIn patients with symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath, a blockage of 70% or greater is usually considered significant enough to benefit from angioplasty to restore blood flow to the heart.
