I'm having some trouble with leg pain when I try to climb stairs, even just to the first floor. The pain seems to be worse in my calf muscle and I end up feeling really tired afterward. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be a sign of a bigger issue, and what might help ease the pain?

I'm really concerned about my heart health right now. My ejection factor is 38, and my doctor recommends I get an angiogram. But to be honest, I'm pretty scared about going through that procedure. Is there any other way to help improve my heart ejection factor? For context, I dont have any bad habits, weigh 68 kg, and am 6 feet tall. Any advice would really help me out.

I'm a 33-year-old guy, and I just got all my heart check-ups done. The results for my ECG, ECHO, and TMT seemed fine, but my echo report mentioned something about trivial tricuspid regurgitation and trivial mitral regurgitation. My doctor said it's nothing to worry about, but I'm eager to start some physical activity like gym workouts and swimming to lose weight. Is it safe for me to go ahead with cardio and strength training with these heart conditions?

yes mild exercises are advised.
