View allWhat is a heart cough?
Heavy breathing accompanied by spells of wet cough with frothy sputum that may be tinged with blood is called as "Cardiac cough or Heart cough". It is a sign of congestive heart failure. Additional symptoms such as shortness of breath on exertion or rest, leg swelling, waking up from sleep in the middle of night gasping and coughing differentiate heart cough from cough due to lung conditions.

I had this sudden pain on the left side of my chest last night, and it kind of felt like there was pressure in my throat too. It went away after about 15-30 minutes, but theres still a bit of chest pain lingering. Any idea what might be going on? Im really worried.
Based on your description, it is possible that you may have experienced a muscle strain or inflammation in your chest wall, known as costochondritis. This condition can cause sharp, stabbing pain in the chest that may worsen with movement or deep breathing. It is usually not serious and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (e.g. Advil) taken at a dose of 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is important to seek medical attention to rule out more serious conditions such as a heart problem.

I've been prescribed Biotor tablet 10 instead of Clavix and Atorlip, and my doctor mentioned it has Ecospirin in it. But when I looked it up online, it seems like it only contains atorvastatin. I'm really confused nowdoes Biotor tablet 10 actually have Ecospirin too?
No it does not contain aspirin.
