I've been experiencing some mild chest pain and discomfort when I breathe. It's a bit concerning, and I'm wondering what could be causing this. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that could resolve on its own? Could it be related to stress, or should I get it checked out immediately?

I'm experiencing this weird needle-like pricking sensation in my right chest and arms, but it only happens at night, and Ive noticed it seems to occur when I drink alcohol. My blood pressure seems to range from 8095 to 120140 in the evening, but its normal in the morning. This has been going on for months now. I had an ECG done and the doctor said my heart seems fine, but he mentioned symptoms of high blood pressure over the past few months. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I could do to help with the symptoms?

This sensation in your right chest and arms, especially occurring at night after drinking alcohol, could be related to nerve irritation or inflammation. Given your fluctuating blood pressure readings, it is important to manage your blood pressure effectively to prevent any complications. I recommend you to take a low dose of Amlodipine (brand name: Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help control your blood pressure. Additionally, you can take Acetaminophen (brand name: Tylenol) 500mg for relief from the needle-like sensation in your chest and arms. However, it is important to limit or avoid alcohol consumption as it can exacerbate your symptoms and negatively impact your blood pressure. Please make sure to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

I'm feeling really tired and weak after my angioplasty. I'm also sweating a lot, and I've got these cold shivers. Walking is hard because of that, and I've noticed five black dots on the sole of my foot. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing all this?

It is post angioplasty complications.. The complications will settle within 2-3 days, if persisting cardiologist opinion is advised to the patient..

I'm having this issue with pain in my upper chest thats been going on for the last six days, and I'm also dealing with a blocked nose and a bit of a cough. I havent had any fever, but the first day, the pain was pretty intense and felt like a crushing sensation whenever I moved, with pressure in the upper chest area. My hand and shoulder muscles are hurting too, and there's some pain in my back just behind my chest along with prickly feelings every now and then. It's making it really hard for me to sleep. A couple of weeks ago, I had a cold with a fever and a cough but there was no chest pain then. I used to smoke for a few years but I quit smoking about a year ago. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest which specialist I should see?
