I'm really worried about my brother. He's been having some chest discomfort and mild pain that sometimes happens on the left side and other times in the center. He gets really nervous, and his heart rate spikes to around 90-98 bpm when this happens, but when he's more relaxed, it goes back down to about 68-72 bpm. He runs on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes at least five days a week and doesn't feel any discomfort during that time. Although he has an acidity and GERD problem, he's finished his course of medication and isn't taking any other tablets. His sugar and blood pressure are normal, and chest X-rays came back fine, with an orthopaedic saying it's nothing serious and just suggesting vitamins. He also feels pain at certain points when the chest is pressed. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if it could be his heart, acidity, muscular, or maybe even a nerve issue. Do you think an angiography would be necessary given his normal reports so far?

I'm worried about my father. He had angioplasty just yesterday, and now he's got this pain running from the middle of his leg down to his ankle. Is that something to be concerned about, or is it normal after angioplasty?

Pain from the mid-leg to the ankle after an angioplasty could be due to several factors, such as the site of catheter insertion (usually the femoral artery in the groin) or the use of a vascular closure device. While mild discomfort and bruising can be normal, significant pain should be evaluated to rule out complications like hematoma, arterial injury, or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Please consult your father's healthcare provider promptly to assess the cause of the pain and ensure appropriate management.

I just got my ECG report back, and it says "sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia." Should I be concerned about this? Do I need to see a specialist or get a further consultation? How serious could this be?

Sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia is a common finding in ECG reports and is usually not a cause for concern. It typically does not require any specific treatment unless it is causing symptoms such as dizziness or fainting. In most cases, it does not indicate a serious underlying heart condition. If you are not experiencing any symptoms, no further consultation is necessary.
