I've been having this pain in the heart area of my chest for over three months now, and it happens about twice a week. I haven't been doing any kind of exercise recently. I'm starting to get really worried about it. Could this be something I should be concerned about? What might be causing this, and what should I do?

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.

I've done all the tests like TMT and 2D ECHO, and everything seems normal, but I'm still having this chest pain. What could be causing this?

I'm 25 and dealing with prehypertension. My blood pressure is at 14090. I've had tests done and everything seems normal, like my lipid profile, liver function, and kidney function test. I've been eating mostly green veggies and getting some exercise every morning, but I still can't seem to get my blood pressure under control. Do you think I should consider medication?

Since your blood pressure is not controlled despite lifestyle changes, medication may be necessary to help manage your pre-hypertension. I recommend starting with a low-dose of a medication like Losartan (brand name: Cozaar) 25mg once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider to adjust the dosage if needed.
