Ive been experiencing some pain in the heart area of my chest whenever I bend backwards and raise my hands. It just started this morning. Yesterday, I was doing deep breathing exercises for PMR and some physical workouts. Do you think there's an issue if I use a spray like Volini on that area?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Applying Volini spray on the chest area for chest pain is not recommended, especially if the pain is in the heart area and is triggered by specific movements. It is important to rule out any underlying heart issues before using any topical pain relief medication. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis.

View allI'm really concerned about my recent echocardiogram results. It showed everything as normal except it mentioned mild PAH, trivial TR, Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, and traces of pericardial effusion. My last master health check-up was normal just two months ago. I'm 41, unmarried, and I weigh 108kg, which puts me in the obese range. I've also been experiencing some issues with deep breathing and saw a pulmonologist who prescribed some medication. I'm really anxious about the mild PAH results. Is this something I should be worried about, and is it possible for mild PAH to be reversed? And what about the other findings? Are they serious? I'm planning to do a TMT soon, but this whole thing is stressing me out quite a bit. Could you please help clarify all this?
Mild PAH (Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension) is a condition where there is increased blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs. While mild PAH may not cause immediate concern, it is important to monitor it regularly as it can progress over time. Treatment options for PAH include medications such as Sildenafil or Bosentan to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life. It is important to follow up with your Pulmonologist regularly to monitor the progression of PAH. Trivial TR (Tricuspid Regurgitation) is a common finding in echocardiograms and is often not a cause for concern, especially when it is mild. Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction refers to abnormalities in the relaxation phase of the heart's pumping cycle, which may indicate early signs of heart disease. Traces of pericardial effusion indicate the presence of fluid around the heart, which can have various causes and may need further evaluation. Since you are experiencing deep breathing problems, it is a good idea to follow through with the planned TMT (Treadmill Stress Test) to assess your heart's response to exercise. This test can provide valuable information about your heart's function and help guide further management. Overall, it is important to continue working closely with your healthcare providers, including your Pulmonologist and Cardiologist, to monitor and manage these findings. Regular follow-ups and lifestyle modifications, such as weight loss in the case of obesity, can help improve your overall health and well-being."

I've been having this chest pain on the left side whenever I take a deep breath, and it's been going on for about three months now. I got an X-ray and a CT scan with contrast done, and I've already shown the reports to a pulmonologist three times. He suggested I talk to an orthopedic specialist. I did, but all I got was some painkillers, and they haven't helped at all. Could you please advise me on what might be going on or what I should do next?
Orthopedic opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm feeling really anxious about some things I've noticed. My recent ECG showed some non-specific T wave changes, and I'm not sure what that means. On top of that, I've been dealing with chronic pain in my left arm and I've also been experiencing tachycardia. Should I be worried about these symptoms together? Any advice or insights would be really helpful.
Non-specific T wave changes on an ECG can have various causes, including cardiac issues, electrolyte imbalances, or even be a normal variant. Given your symptoms of chronic left arm pain and tachycardia, it is important to further evaluate the underlying cause. In this case, you may benefit from a thorough cardiac evaluation and possibly a medication like Aspirin for heart protection, along with a beta-blocker like Metoprolol to help control your heart rate. Additionally, addressing any underlying issues such as high blood pressure or cholesterol levels may also be necessary. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further assessment and management.
