I'm a 28-year-old male and I've noticed that for the past 6 months, my resting heart rate has consistently been over 100, sometimes getting up to 120. I'm really wondering if this is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Is this something I need to get checked out?

I'm 22 and have been feeling something weird in my heart for about a week now. It's hard to explain, but it's like something is wrong near my heart. I can still walk 5km, run, lift weights, and eat normally. However, when I drink water, it feels like it's going toward my heart. Also, I have a slight pain in my right thigh. I'm getting a bit worried because I'm planning to go to the UK next month. Is this something serious that I should be concerned about?

Based on your symptoms, it is important to rule out any potential heart issues. The sensation you are feeling near your heart, along with the thigh pain, could be related to various factors. It is recommended to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a low dose of Aspirin (75-100mg) once daily to help with any potential heart-related concerns. Additionally, ensure you stay hydrated and avoid strenuous activities until you have been evaluated by a healthcare professional.

I'm really worried about my mom's condition. The doctors have found she has a ventricular septal defect and mentioned that an operation right now is pretty risky. Is there any other treatment option we could consider to help her?

I'm starting to get really worried because my heart's been racing for the last day and a half. It's super uncomfortable and happens whether I'm sitting or standing. I'm not even exercising or anything, so I can't figure out what's causing it. What should I do?

It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of tachycardia. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help slow down your heart rate and reduce the discomfort. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated and avoid caffeine and stimulants which can exacerbate the symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly.
