What is a heart cough?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI'm feeling really anxious lately, and I've started noticing this strange sensation where my heart suddenly seems to beat extra hard or feels delayed, especially when I'm just sitting or standing quietly. Could my anxiety be causing these strong or extra heartbeats, or is there something else going on that I should be worried about?

I'm really worried about my husband. About eight months ago, he had some chest pain, so we went for a check-up. They did an ECG, an echo, and a stress test, and thankfully everything seemed normal, but he had high blood pressure and his triglycerides were around 250. He's been on medication for BP since then, including Prolomet XL 50, Hytel H, Tonact D, and Nulong 5mg. But just yesterday, he experienced chest pain again. We went to the doctor and did another ECG, which came back normal. The doctor said it might be muscle pain and gave him some pain medicine. I'm still worried it could be related to his heart. Should we be looking at other tests, like an echo again or something else, to be sure everything's okay with his heart?
It is good that your husband's ECG results have been normal. Since he has a history of chest pain and high triglycerides, it is important to monitor his heart health closely. Given the symptoms of chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with an echocardiogram (echo) to assess the structure and function of the heart. Additionally, considering his risk factors, a stress test or a coronary angiography may also be recommended by the doctor to further evaluate his heart health and rule out any underlying heart conditions. In the meantime, continue with the prescribed medications including Prolomet XL 50 for blood pressure, Hytel H for hypertension, Tonact D for cholesterol, and Nulong 5mg.

I'm really worried about some symptoms I've been having lately. For the past week, I've had this pain in my left arm, shoulder, and back, along with trouble breathing. It just keeps coming and going. I've always had lower blood pressure, and now I'm also experiencing chest pain on my left side. Plus, if I try to take a deep breath, my whole back hurts. Could this be something serious?
