I'm experiencing this weird vibration-like sensation in the upper left side of my chest that's been going on for a couple of days. Initially, I thought it was just acidity, but its been almost 45 days now. Any idea whats causing this and how I can fix it quickly?

I'm 25, and I've been dealing with this on-and-off pain in my left arm for about 15-20 days now. It was sharp and shooting at first, so I thought it might be gastritis, but now the pain's more dull and constant. Lately, for about a week, I've been feeling breathless sometimes, and there's some nausea too. I get tired pretty quick and now there's this annoying discomfort in my upper back. Should I be looking into any specific tests or is there something else I should be considering?

MRI of the left arm and ortho opinion is advised

My INR levels have been all over the place latelyone month it's at 2.5, and then the next it's down to 1.5. My doctor keeps changing my medication dose, and honestly, I'm getting worried. If this continues, could it cause problems with my mechanical valve in the aortic position? I do an echo each year, but I'm still concerned. Can you explain how this might affect me?

Fluctuating INR levels can indeed be concerning, especially for patients with a mechanical heart valve. It is important to maintain a stable INR to prevent complications such as blood clots or bleeding. To help stabilize your INR levels, your doctor may consider prescribing a medication like Warfarin. It is crucial to follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage adjustments based on your INR levels. If your INR continues to fluctuate, it can increase the risk of blood clots forming on your mechanical heart valve. This can potentially lead to serious complications such as valve malfunction or stroke. Regular echocardiograms are essential for monitoring the function of your mechanical valve and detecting any issues early. To help stabilize your INR and protect your mechanical heart valve, it is important to adhere to your prescribed medication regimen and attend regular follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider.

I've recently found out that I have a heart blockage issue and I'm really worried about what this means for my health. Is there any Ayurvedic treatment that could help with clearing the heart blockage? Im looking for a more natural approach if possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm feeling quite anxious about this whole situation.

Ayurvedic treatments for heart blockage focus on lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, and herbal remedies; consider the following: Triphala, Arjuna, and Amalaki to reduce cholesterol and inflammation; Abana, a polyherbal formulation, to improve cardiac function; Panchakarma therapies, such as snehana and swedana, to detoxify and rejuvenate; and Rasayana Chikitsa, a rejuvenation therapy, to improve overall cardiovascular health; however, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner or cardiologist before starting any treatment, as Ayurvedic remedies may interact with modern medications or worsen underlying conditions.
