I've been experiencing some chest pain when I'm jogging or running. My diagnosis results, including the echo and ECG, came back normal. Could you please help me understand what might be causing this kind of pain?

Chest pain during physical activity like jogging and running, with normal results on echo and ECG, could be due to musculoskeletal causes such as muscle strain or costochondritis. It could also be related to conditions like acid reflux or anxiety. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen for muscle pain, or antacids for acid reflux. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques for anxiety may also help. If the pain persists or worsens, further evaluation may be needed.

I've been feeling a rapid heartbeat and some pounding since yesterday. I checked it, and it's at 88 bpm. Is this normal? Could it be related to the cough medicine I've been taking? When should this settle down?

A heart rate of 88 beats per minute is within the normal range for adults. However, if you are feeling pounding and rapid heartbeat, it may be a side effect of the cough medicine you are taking. Some cough medicines contain ingredients that can increase heart rate as a side effect. I recommend stopping the cough medicine and consulting with your healthcare provider. If needed, you can switch to a cough medicine that does not have this side effect, such as Delsym (dextromethorphan) at a dose of 10-20 mg every 4-6 hours as needed.

I stopped smoking about a month and a half ago, and ever since, I've been getting this weird feeling on the left side of my chest sometimes. There's occasionally some pain that only lasts for a few minutes. Plus, I notice I sometimes get short of breath and start sweating. I've found that burping can sometimes relieve the discomfort, but not always. Once in a while, the pain starts in my back between my shoulder blades or in my lower back. Does this sound like something I should be concerned about? What might be going on here?
