I've just gotten over COVID, and I've noticed some changes in my heart rate. When I'm at rest, it's okay around 70-95, but when I climb stairs, it spikes to between 160-165. Even when I'm just walking at a pace of 5 kmh, it's around 130-140. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be concerned?

View allI've been dealing with left atrium hypertrophy and costochondritis lately, and it's been quite a concern. What I'm confused about is whether it's safe for me to get back into playing football or engage in any strenuous physical activities. Could you provide some guidance on if I can safely start playing again?
It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice, but in general, individuals with left atrium hypertrophy and costochondritis can usually continue playing football or engaging in strenuous physical activity. However, it is essential to monitor your symptoms closely and avoid activities that worsen your condition. For left atrium hypertrophy, medications like Losartan or Amlodipine may be prescribed to manage blood pressure and reduce strain on the heart. For costochondritis, over-the-counter pain relievers like Ibuprofen or Naproxen can help alleviate discomfort. Remember to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations and listen to your body during physical activity.

I've been smoking for a few years, and I've recently started feeling this mild pain in my heart, especially when I'm lying down. I'm pretty sure it's connected because I've been smoking more than usual this week. Do you think this is just a temporary thing, or could there be a more serious condition going on? Also, should I be getting any specific tests done, like a cancer screening or something? I really want to quit smoking, but I can't handle gums, and patches just don't seem to work for me. What should my next steps be?
quit smoking and do regular breathing exercises
