Managing HCM at 38 isn’t easy, but it can be done. HCM thickens the muscles of the heart, which may affect the flow of blood. You might start experiencing chest pains, shortness of breath or even fainting spells. Taking drugs like beta blockers helps to calm down your heart as well as control these signs from occurring again. In addition, staying within certain limits when being active and not engaging in strenuous activities could work in your favor too. Always keep in mind that following what the doctor says is important!

It is vital to visit the doctor if the chest pressure lasts for 15 days. It could be a symptom of a serious condition that is related to the heart and lungs. I suggest you see a cardiologist or pulmonologist for a thorough examination and treatment regimen.

Female | 20
Shortness of breath and low heart rate could indicative serious medical condition. It's important to seek immediate medical attention from a cardiologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. These symptoms may be associated with heart related issues, such as angina, heart attack, or arrhythmias. However, they can also be caused by other conditions, including respiratory problems or anxiety.

Is it possible to get any advice on a heart related issue. I will put diagnosis down. Large pseud o aneurysm left ventricle coutanid rupture.
Male | 66
A big bulging area in the heart's main pumping chamber might burst, creating problems. Squeezing chest pains, skipped heartbeats, breathing trouble; those are signs something's off. An earlier heart attack or operation sometimes causes this condition. Get urgent care from a cardiologist who'll prescribe meds or operate, preventing worse issues if it ruptures.

How to improve heart working. It's working just 30% ,so what can we do for improv our heart health with medicine like vitamins with food and which one?
Male | 62
Your heart's pumping power is low, about 30%. It makes you easily tired, short of breath, and dizzy. Eating vitamin-rich foods helps, like fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Omega-3 fish oil supplements can also boost heart health. Exercise regularly and reduce stress levels. These lifestyle changes may strengthen your heart. You can consult a cardiologist.

I am 62 year old. I have been taking medicine for last 4-5 year. Heart pumping was set at 42% from last 3 year , but I had got heat attack 2 times and now pumping work at 30% and No blockage, now what should I will do ?
Male | 62
You should consult a cardiologist as soon as possible to determine how well your heart functions. A drop from 42% pumping to the level of 30% is considerable, and it may call for a modification in medication or other therapy. Heart health must be taken care of by the specialist to avoid further heart attacks.

i want to show my father's ecg
Male | 55
I see you have your father's ECG results. An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a very simple and easy-to-run test that shows the heart's electrical activity, and it is called an ECG. Besides, if the ECG shows such disorders as too fast or too slow heartbeats, it can be the reason for heart problems. A heart attack or myocardial infarction may occur because of the symptoms of chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness. It can be a result of hypertension that is related to either the heart itself or to stress. Other possible remedies are lifestyle changes including healthy dieting, regular exercising, and stress reduction. It is always necessary to contact the doctor to get your condition assessed and the treatment prescribed.

I am some problem in my chest
Male | 25
There could be many reasons for this. Sometimes it's just a case of indigestion or heartburn caused by eating too fast or consuming foods that don't agree with us. Another frequent reason is acid reflux, characterized by a burning feeling in the chest. Stress or anxiety might also be considerations since they can sometimes affect the chest. Eating smaller meals more often and avoiding fatty, spicy foods is advisable. If the matter persists seek medical help to rule out anything serious.
