I'm experiencing this left hand cramp and chest pain that comes and goes, and it's been joined by this left arm pain for about eight days now. I went for an ECG yesterday, and they said everything looked normal, though my heart rate was up a bitapparently due to stress. I actually had a similar hand cramp about a month ago. Should I be concerned or look into other causes for these symptoms?

Based on your symptoms of left hand cramp, chest pain, and left arm pain, along with a normal ECG result and slightly elevated heart rate possibly due to stress, it is important to consider muscle relaxants and pain relievers. You can take acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief and muscle relaxation. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like cyclobenzaprine 5mg to help with the hand cramp. It is important to take these medications as directed on the packaging or as advised by a healthcare professional

View allIm curious about something strange I've been experiencing. Whenever I lie down and try to relax, it feels like my body shakes with what seems like a pulse or heartbeat. Its weird because both my blood pressure and heartbeat are normal, and Ive had an echo and an ECG done, and those were fine too. Is it usual to feel this sort of pulsing or shaking in the body while resting?

I'm taking medicine for high BP, but I'm having this recurring chest pain, and it's really concerning. On top of that, I'm dealing with severe throat pain, making it hard for me to eat or swallow anything. My blood pressure is all over the place, and I'm not sure what foods I should be eating or what precautions I should be taking. Could you provide some advice on how to handle this situation?

My uncle has been advised to undergo MICS technique heart surgery for his heart blockages by Dr Sathyaki Nambala at Apollo Bangalore. He's a bit worried since it's a newer technique and there aren't many reviews online. Is MICS safe compared to conventional heart surgery? What are the risks or specific concerns he should know about before deciding? Would you recommend going ahead with MICS or sticking to the traditional method?
