I'm feeling a bit worried because I've noticed this nerve in my left palm beating, and I'm not sure if it's something dangerous. I had an ASD device closure recently, and I'm wondering if this might be related. I have a 3-year-old child, so I just want to make sure everything's okay. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

Nerve beating or throbbing in the palm of your left hand can be due to various reasons such as nerve compression, inflammation, or even stress. Since you recently had an ASD device closure, it is important to monitor this symptom closely. To help alleviate the nerve beating, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a topical pain relief cream containing diclofenac can also help. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been noticing something odd when I sleep. If I rest my head on my hand, when I wake up, that part of my head feels numb, almost like there's been blood circulation loss. It usually happens near my ear or sometimes at the back. Once I wake up and move my hand away, I can feel the blood coming back, and after massaging it for a bit, it feels normal again. Is this something to worry about, or is it common? I'm a bit anxious about it.

I've been experiencing this weird tightness in my chest, like something is stuck or not right in there. It's been going on for about half an hour now. Can you help me understand what's happening? It's making me pretty anxious.

This sensation could be due to acid reflux. You can try taking an antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg to help relieve the discomfort. It is recommended to take 2-4 tablets as needed, but not exceeding 15 tablets in 24 hours. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention immediately.
