I'm wondering if it's okay to stop taking ecospirin 75 after recovering from COVID. Is there a recommended time to keep taking it if I only had mild symptoms? And what happens if I stop using it after a month? Could there be any side effects from stopping it so soon?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Ecospirin 75 is a brand name for aspirin. Aspirin is often prescribed post-Covid recovery to prevent blood clots. The duration for taking aspirin post-Covid recovery varies depending on individual risk factors and the severity of the illness. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the duration of aspirin therapy. Stopping aspirin abruptly after 1 month of Covid recovery may increase the risk of blood clots, especially if you were prescribed aspirin for this purpose. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before discontinuing any medication, including aspirin, to avoid any potential side effects or complications.

View allI'm a bit worried about a possible heart issue. So, I was working and suddenly got this intense headache. I went to see a doctor, and my ECG was a bit off. The Troponin I test showed 0.15 while my BP was 144. The doctor advised me to rest for 45 days with some meds and said there's no need to worry. After two days, I checked my ECG and BP, and they were both normal. I'm really curious if there's still a risk of any heart stroke or damage. What do you think?
A sudden headache and an elevated troponin I level of 0.15 ngmL can be concerning, as troponin is a marker of heart muscle damage. However, since your ECG and blood pressure are now normal and your doctor advised rest and medication, it appears that any immediate risk has been managed. It's important to follow your doctor's advice, take your medication, and rest as prescribed. Additionally, continue to monitor your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider for any further evaluation or tests they recommend. If you experience any new or worsening symptoms, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or another severe headache, seek medical attention immediately.

I recently had an ECG and felt really nervous during the test. The report mentioned "sinus tachycardia otherwise normal ECG." Should I be worried about this?
Sinus tachycardia is a condition where the heart beats faster than normal. In most cases, it is a normal response to stress, anxiety, or exercise. Since your ECG report shows sinus tachycardia but is otherwise normal, there is likely no cause for concern. However, if you continue to experience symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider. No specific medication is needed for sinus tachycardia, but managing stress and anxiety can help.

I've been feeling this weird vibration in my left chest, and it only lasts for like 1 or 2 seconds before it stops on its own. I'm not really sure what could be causing it or how to make it go away. Could you tell me what might be going on and if there's anything I can do to stop it?
Feeling vibrations in the left chest that stop within 1 to 2 seconds could be due to premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), which are extra, abnormal heartbeats that begin in the ventricles. To help manage PVCs, you can try reducing stress and anxiety, avoiding caffeine and nicotine, and ensuring you stay hydrated. In some cases, if PVCs are frequent or bothersome, a doctor may prescribe a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help regulate the heart rhythm.
