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 a bit worried because for the past month I've been having this weird chest pain, mostly on the left side. It's also affecting my left hand, shoulder, and neck. I've already done a TMT, echo, and ECG but the reports all came back normal. I'm really confused about what's going on. Could you help me figure out what this might be?

When there is no cardiac issue that could be pleuritis or costochondritis no need to worry take rest and foolow your doctors advice.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 65 and had open heart surgery last June. He's also been dealing with some CLVA on his left side for about 8 years. Just last week, he started having swelling in his legs. Can you help me understand what's causing this?

Swelling in the legs could be due to several factors, including heart-related issues such as heart failure, especially after open-heart surgery. It could also be related to his history of CLVA (Chronic Left Ventricular Aneurysm), which can affect circulation. I recommend getting a medical evaluation to determine the exact cause and ensure proper treatment.
