I'm feeling some discomfort in a few spots on both sides of my chest. My HDL cholesterol is low, and I recently had a mildly positive TMT test. What do you think could be going on, and is there anything I should do?

my grandma had open heart surgery and they took veins from her legs for it now the wound is healing but above her ankle it's getting wider and fluid is coming out can we use hydrogen peroxide to clean it or what's the best way to take care of this

Clean gently with saline or antiseptic‚Äînot hydrogen peroxide as it delays wound healing.

Been dealing with heart palpitations for about 3 weeks now and it's starting to worry me a bit. I'm taking hypertension meds and Prozac at 10mg. I've had these palpitations before, around 2 weeks, but they went away and my doctor said everything was fine with my heart then. Any thoughts on what might be going on or if there's something else I should consider? Should I be concerned this time?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm feeling this weird breathlessness when I lie down, but it goes away if I turn to my side. I don't have a cough or fever, and I consider myself pretty healthy otherwise. Should I be concerned about this?

Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.
