There could be many reasons for this. Sometimes it's just a case of indigestion or heartburn caused by eating too fast or consuming foods that don't agree with us. Another frequent reason is acid reflux, characterized by a burning feeling in the chest. Stress or anxiety might also be considerations since they can sometimes affect the chest. Eating smaller meals more often and avoiding fatty, spicy foods is advisable. If the matter persists seek medical help to rule out anything serious.

I am a 19 year old girl. My heart beat is going fast since last few days and before this I went to see the doctor. The doctor said that it is going from low to high and after getting the report done the report was normal and then the medicine was given and it was fine. The same problem is still there and my exam is going on, what should I do at this time.

I suggest to you see a cardiologist in order to slow down your fast pulse rate. They are experts in the heart-related conditions and have the capability to give you the right directions and treatment.

Hello, Can I ask if what should I do if my mom's blood pressure didn't go lower than 170/70. She's a dialysis patient. But since last night, her bp is 180/60 or 190/70.

Female | 62

It occurs when pressure builds inside blood vessels. There could be several causes – stress, kidney disease, or not adhering to the dialysis routine. Unchecked, it can lead to heart strain, even damage arteries. You should promptly alert your mom's doctors. They might alter medications or propose lifestyle changes.

Hello, I have been having pain in my right shoulder and in my chest around my heart area, but when I take my prescribed medication for my heart. It doesn't alleviate the pain. I had a massive heart attack back in 2011 and I currently have a defibrillator, so now I take Aspirin, Lisenapril and a couple of other meds, but I notice that I still have pain on my left side which makes it kinda hard to breathe. I work as a dishwasher and I don't do a lot of heavy lifting, so I don't know what it could be. I can barely lift my arm because of it. Please help!

With your past heart attack and defibrillator, it's crucial to inform your cardiolgist promptly about these new symptoms. They'll help identify the cause and suggest suitable treatment.

My husband have been suffering from chest pain and he was diagnosed with high cholesterol level i.e 287

Male | 33

Chest pain could signify high cholesterol, meaning excessive fat in the blood. This situation carries risk, as it can obstruct heart-bound blood vessels. To resolve this, your husband can adopt a wholesome diet, engage in physical activity, and consume prescribed medication if necessary. You can also consult a cardiologist.
