Why do most heart attacks occur in the morning?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Our body has Carcadian system and this rythm dips and raises throutout the day. This system sends out PA1-1 cells which blocks the blood clots from breaking down. Another reason is when we wake up, brain floods the heart with hormones which increases the load on the heart .

View allI'm feeling really uncomfortable with my chest. I've got this back pain, and it feels like there's tightness there too. Initially, it was on the right side, lower down, but now I feel it on the left side, just above my stomach. It's not exactly painful, more like a feeling of tightness. I've also been having some heartburn. Should I be concerned about this, and what might it be?

I've recently had a stress echo and it came back negative. Ten years ago, in 2011, I had an angiogram and it looked fine then too. In 2015, I went through a nuclear test, treadmill test, and some other checks, and they all turned out normal. Lately, Ive been having this dull pain in my neck that sometimes reaches up to my ear and jaw, and it also bothers my shoulder. My neck and upper back always feel stiff. My physiotherapist says my posture is pretty poor, mentions scoliosis, and thinks that might be causing this pain. I don't have issues when I'm walking and I can climb up to 12 floors without a problem but the neck and back pain, especially on the left side, really gets to me. Occasionally, I feel a sharp pain on the left side of my chest, but it fades away quickly. My chest is tender, and some spots are really sore to touch. Do you think it's safe to rule out any cardiac causes? Is there any other test I should consider doing?
Based on your history of negative stress echo, normal angio in 2011, and normal nuclear test and TMT in 2015, it is less likely that your current symptoms are related to cardiac issues. However, it is important to consider other potential causes for your neck, ear, jaw, shoulder, and chest pain. Given your description of neck stiffness and pain, along with the presence of scoliosis affecting your posture, it is possible that your symptoms are musculoskeletal in nature. To address your current symptoms, you may benefit from a muscle relaxant such as **Cyclobenzaprine** 10mg to help with the neck and back stiffness. Additionally, you can consider taking **Ibuprofen** 400mg for pain relief. Since you mentioned tenderness in your chest and certain points, it may be helpful to rule out any musculoskeletal chest wall pain. However, considering your history and current symptoms, further cardiac testing may not be necessary at this point. To improve your posture and alleviate the neck and back pain, regular physiotherapy sessions focusing on postural correction and strengthening exercises may be beneficial. It is important to continue working with your physiotherapist to address the underlying cause of your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
