I'm having some discomfort in my chest when I masturbate, especially in the middle and left side. It doesn't hurt a lot, just a little, but it's noticeable. At first, I thought it might be because I was overweight, so I lost some weight and now I'm down to 67 kg, but the pain is still there. I even tried stopping for a month, thinking it was because I was doing it too often, like 3-4 times a week, but the pain came back when I started again. I'm a bit embarrassed to talk to my friends or family about this, but is there something else that could be causing it?

I'm having chest pain on the left side and it's been going on for quite a while now. I've had some tests done and it turns out there's a blockage in my heart. Do you think I should see a surgeon about this?

Based on your symptoms and test results showing blockage in your heart, you may need to start taking medications to manage your condition. One common medication prescribed for this is Aspirin, which helps to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack. The usual dosage for Aspirin in this case is 75mg to 325mg per day. Additionally, a statin medication like Atorvastatin may be prescribed to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages. The typical starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10mg to 20mg once daily. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management of your heart condition.
