I've been having this burning sensation in the upper back, right at the center, since this morning. It's really bothering me, and I'm not sure if it's something serious or if I'm overthinking it. Could it be a sign of something I should be worried about, or is it just something that happens sometimes? Would really appreciate your thoughts on this.

View allMy dad had bypass surgery about 20 years ago, and now the doctor is suggesting he needs a CAG. They mentioned something about "30 working," and I'm not completely sure what that means. He's 60 years old now. Is it safe for him to go through this procedure again at his age?
"Dear Sir, based on your father's history of bypass surgery and the current recommendation for CAG due to 30% heart function, it is important to proceed with caution. Given his age of 60 years, the procedure can still be safe. Your father may benefit from medications like Clopidogrel 75mg and Atorvastatin 40mg to manage his heart condition. It is important to follow your doctor's advice closely and monitor for any potential complications. Regular follow-up appointments are essential for his ongoing care and management."

I'm noticing that my heart rate sits between 85 to 105 when I'm just resting. I had an ECG done and my doctor mentioned I have sinus tachycardia, but thankfully no arrhythmia. I'm kind of worried, thoughdoes this mean I'm at risk for a heart attack or maybe a brain stroke? I'm only 19, so I'm not sure what to think.
In your case, since you are 19 years old and your ECG shows sinus tachycardia without arrhythmia, the chances of heart attack or stroke are very low at your age. To help manage your sinus tachycardia, you can try relaxation techniques, avoid stimulants like caffeine, and ensure you are well-hydrated. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you may consider beta-blocker medications like Metoprolol at a low dose under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
