View allI recently got my routine health checkup results back, and the ECG report mentioned something about "ST-segment elevation lateral" and "borderline ECG." I'm not really sure what that means, and it's got me a bit worried. Could you help me understand if this is something serious or just a minor issue?
ST-segment elevation on an ECG can indicate a potential heart issue, such as myocardial infarction or heart attack. The lateral aspect refers to the left side of the heart. A borderline ECG means that the findings are not definitively abnormal but may warrant further investigation. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a complete evaluation and appropriate management.

Is it possible to treat heart blockage just with medications and lifestyle changes without needing surgery or angioplasty I'm worried because I've heard mixed opinions and want to know if avoiding procedures is a safe option for managing it
conservative therapy fails ,angioplasty is the only resort.

I've been having this brief but really intense pain right in the middle of my chest, and it only lasts for a second. It kind of feels like something's bursting in there, and it happens when I'm just resting. It's pretty scary and I'm not sure what I should do. Any thoughts?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. It is important to seek medical attention immediately to rule out any serious underlying heart conditions. I recommend taking a low dose of aspirin (75-150mg) immediately, as it can help reduce the risk of heart attack. Additionally, you should take a sublingual nitroglycerin tablet to help relieve the chest pain. It is important to rest and avoid any strenuous activity until you can see a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
