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.

View allI'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing a fast heartbeat after I climb stairs or if I'm walking in the sun for just about 10 minutes. Even while cleaning a room, my heart rate seems to go up rapidly. I'm 20 years old, weigh about 65 kg, and I'm 5.4 inches tall. Could you tell me what might be going on?
A fast heart rate after climbing stairs or walking in the sunlight is often due to your body's increased demand for oxygen during physical activity: Climbing stairs: When you climb stairs, your heart works harder to pump blood to your muscles, which increases your heart rate. This is called sinus tachycardia, which is a symptom, not a condition. Sunlight: Physical activity can cause your heart rate to increase.

I'm really worried about my health and wanted to ask about my cholesterol levels. My LDL is 108, HDL is just 27, and my total cholesterol is 127. I had gallbladder removal surgery back in 2013. I'm wondering, given these numbers, how at risk am I for heart disease? Also, my weight is 103 kilos and I'm 176 cm tall. What steps should I take to improve my situation and get my levels to where they should be?
Your LDL cholesterol level of 108 mgdL and HDL cholesterol level of 27 mgdL, along with a total cholesterol of 127 mgdL, indicate a relatively low risk of heart disease. However, since you have a history of gallbladder surgery in 2013, it's important to take proactive steps to maintain heart health. To improve your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease, you can consider lifestyle modifications such as following a heart-healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding smoking. Additionally, your healthcare provider may recommend medications such as statins to further manage your cholesterol levels. It's essential to continue monitoring your cholesterol levels regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations based on your medical history and risk factors.

I'm a 23-year-old guy experiencing some weird chest pains that also hit my shoulders, arms, back, and even my abdomen. It's like a burning pain that moves around, and I'm worried because it's not constant. I went to the doctor, and they said my ECG is normal, but I still don't know what's going on. Any ideas on what might be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of musculoskeletal pain or nerve irritation. To help with the pain in your chest, arms, shoulders, and back, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel like Volini gel on the affected areas for relief. Make sure to avoid any activities that worsen the pain and try to maintain good posture. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
