I'm really curious about something. Is it possible to have a heart stent removed without undergoing bypass surgery? I'm trying to understand if there's a way to do this less invasively. Would love to hear your thoughts!

View allI've been having some concerns after getting the Covishield vaccine a few days ago. I've been experiencing chest pain and a feeling of tightness, along with mild difficulty breathing when I'm lying down. There's also a lot of mucus coming from my mouth. It feels like I might have a cold, considering I've had COVID before. Should I be worried about possible chest congestion or could it be something else?
take one mucolytic for 5 days twice a day

I'm experiencing this odd pressure on my chest, specifically on the left side where I've drawn a white line in the photo I sent. It's not quite pain, but more like an uncomfortable pressure. It tends to be noticeable when I lie down, which is pretty uncomfortable, but the pressure seems to go away when I'm up and walking around. There's no pain when I breathe or do exercises, which is confusing me. A few days ago, I was dealing with chest pain but it seems to have lessened. There's this constant pressure, though, especially when I'm lying down. Also, I had sinus tachycardia with a heart rate of 115 BPM during my first echocardiogram. The second one, however, was 77 BPM, and my blood pressure was 13383 mg. I'm wondering if all this is connected and if I should be worried about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal chest pain, possibly related to inflammation or strain in the chest wall muscles. The fact that the discomfort increases when lying down and improves with movement suggests a musculoskeletal origin. To help relieve the pressure and discomfort in your chest, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area may also help relax the muscles and alleviate the pressure sensation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried because my husband recently had his routine health check-up and his blood pressure was at 11070 mmHg with a pulse rate of 66 bpm. He's only 30 years old, so I'm concerned that these numbers might be too low. Could you suggest why this might be happening and what we could do about it?
Low blood pressure and pulse rate in a young individual can be due to various reasons such as dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, heart conditions, or being physically fit. It is important to rule out any underlying medical conditions. In the meantime, he can increase his salt and fluid intake to help raise his blood pressure. He should also ensure he is well-hydrated and consider consuming caffeine in moderation to help increase his pulse rate. If symptoms persist, he should consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
