I'm feeling a lot of pain in the upper muscles of my chest, even though I can breathe normally. It feels like there's pressure on my chest. I recently had a chest X-ray, and the doctor said it was normal. I've got acidity, and I'm not sure if that's what's causing this much pain. It sometimes feels like I might fall over, but my blood pressure and sugar levels are normal. I'm really anxious about my health. I've already taken all the reports; CT scan for my brain was normal, and liver, kidney, and thyroid are also fine. I even checked cardio and took a TMT which came back negative. But both the right and left chest muscles are still hurting. What should I do?

View allI'm really worried about my brother. He's 25 and we've just found out he's got a 20mm hole in his heart. I'm not sure how serious this is and what the next steps should be. Can you help us understand what all of this means and what we should do next?
Treatment for ASD depends on the size of the hole and the symptoms it is causing. In some cases, small ASDs may not require treatment and can close on their own. However, larger defects may require intervention. One common treatment for ASD is surgical repair, where the hole is closed with a patch. Another option is transcatheter closure, where a device is inserted through a catheter to close the hole. Medications may also be prescribed to manage symptoms or prevent complications. In this case, your brother may be prescribed medications such as aspirin to prevent blood clots or medications to manage heart failure symptoms. It is important for your brother to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss the best treatment options for his specific situation.

So lately I've been experiencing this weird needle-like pain around my chest. It only sticks around for a few seconds and then just vanishes. But what really worries me is this constant pain I'm feeling in my back between the shoulder blades. It's just not going away. What could this be? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
"Based on your description of needle-like pain around the chest area that comes and goes, along with constant pain at the back between the shoulder blades, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of musculoskeletal pain or nerve irritation. To help alleviate the chest pain, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for pain relief. For the constant back pain, you can try Ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 6-8 hours as needed for inflammation and pain. Additionally, applying a heating pad to the back area may also provide some relief. Make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to seek further evaluation from a healthcare professional."

I'm currently taking Teleact 40 in the morning and Cilny 10 along with Concor 5 at night. I've been feeling kind of light-headed in the mornings though. Do you think it would be better to switch things up and take the Telmisartan and Cilnidipine combo in the morning and the Concor 5 at night instead? I just want to make sure I'm managing my blood pressure in the best way possible.
Switching to Telmisartan (brand name: Telma) + Cilnidipine (brand name: Cilacar) combination in the morning can help in managing your blood pressure more effectively. You can continue taking Concor 5 at night for better control. The recommended dosage for Telmisartan + Cilnidipine combination would be as per your doctor's prescription.
