I'm really worried about the increase in heart attack deaths among the younger generation and folks over 40, especially in places like the Gulf countries and India during these COVID times. What's causing this rise in heart issues? Are there specific factors related to the pandemic that are making heart conditions worse in these areas? It feels like something has changed recently, and I'm trying to understand what's going on.
The increased death due to heart attacks among youngsters and people above 40 during the COVID-19 pandemic in Gulf countries and India can be attributed to various factors. Stress, lack of physical activity, unhealthy diet, and disruption in regular healthcare services are some of the key contributors. Additionally, the fear of contracting COVID-19 may have deterred individuals from seeking timely medical attention for heart-related symptoms, leading to complications and increased mortality rates. To address this issue, it is important to prioritize heart health by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. In cases where individuals have existing heart conditions or risk factors, it is crucial to continue with prescribed medications and follow-up appointments with healthcare providers. If experiencing any concerning symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath, it is essential to seek medical help promptly. In terms of medication, individuals with heart conditions may be prescribed medications such as Aspirin for blood thinning, Beta-blockers to reduce blood pressure, and Statins to lower cholesterol levels. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and regimen as advised by a healthcare professional.

Ive been noticing some pain in my chest that moves to my left arm and its paired with shortness of breath. It usually happens after Ive had an emotional setback and tends to go away on its own after a while. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?
Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of angina. Angina is chest pain or discomfort that occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen-rich blood. In your case, the pain may be triggered by emotional stress. I recommend you to take Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain. The usual dose is 0.3 to 0.6 mg every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. If the pain persists after taking the medication, please seek immediate medical attention.
