I've been experiencing this sharp, stinging pain in my chest and it seems to spread throughout my body. It's making me feel really disoriented. I'm getting a bit worried because it's happening more often. What could this possibly be, and should I be concerned enough to get it checked out?

These symptoms could be indicative of a heart-related issue such as a heart attack. It is important to seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg to help with potential heart-related pain.

I've been having chest pain and got a 2D echo, ECG, blood work, and an X-ray done. The doctor said everything looks normal, but I noticed some black marks on the left side of the diaphragm in the X-ray. Could you tell me what these might be? I'm a bit concerned.

Diaphragmatic tumour,hernia,birth trauma ,surgical trauma ,thyroid disease and auto-immune disease are some of the causes..A dermatologist opinion is advised.

Is rice bad for cholesterol?

Rice as altogether is not either bad or good for cholesterol. White rice has high cholesterol and also it is easily digestible, so one tends to overeat. On the other hand, brown rice is whole grain with low glycemic index, has less cholesterol and more fiber which promotes fullness.
