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 got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.

My grandmother has been taking Montek LC for about three months now because she started having a mild cough after her cardiac surgery, due to pleural effusion. I'm just a bit worried about whether there might be any side effects from using this medication for such a long period. Also, can it affect her kidneys in any way?

Montek LC, which combines montelukast and levocetirizine, is generally safe for long-term use, but prolonged use can sometimes cause mild side effects like dry mouth, drowsiness, or dizziness. It is not typically harsh on the kidneys, but it's important to monitor kidney function, especially in older adults, during extended use. Regular follow-ups with her doctor would be helpful.
