Question 1

I'm having this ache in my left hand and sometimes it goes numb, it's been going on for about 10 months now. I had an ECG, TMT, and an echo done back in September last year, and everything came back normal. But I can't shake off this anxiety that there might be something wrong with my heart. On top of that, I've been having sharp chest pains every day since last year. What could be causing this and what should I do about it? Please help.

Accepted Answer

Based on your symptoms and previous tests, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. However, since your previous cardiac tests were normal, your symptoms could be related to musculoskeletal issues or nerve compression. I recommend trying over-the-counter pain relief medication like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for the chest pain. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like methocarbamol to help with the ache and numbness in your left hand. It is also advisable to consult with a neurologist for further evaluation and management of the numbness in your hand.

Question 2

I'm 23 and have been dealing with constant chest pain for about a week now. I thought it might just be because of gas, so I tried some home remedies, but the pain hasn't gone away. I'm really starting to get worried. What could be causing this? Should I be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Persistent chest pain should not be ignored, as it can be a sign of a serious medical condition. In this case, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. You can take Acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief, but I recommend seeking medical attention as soon as possible for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

Question 3
