It sounds like you might be experiencing orthostatic hypotension, which is a drop in blood pressure when you stand up. This can cause blurry vision and a feeling of blood rushing from your head. It's important to consult a cardiologist or a general physician to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Hello. I was sitting on the couch on my phone and started feeling a pain and comes and goes on my left arm. After a few minutes I started massaging my shoulder and back and it stopped. 1h after when I was falling asleep it came back and I massaged again and it stopped. Is it something I need to worry about?
Female | 24
Pain on the left arm can be one sign of a heart attack. These signs are more serious if a person has other risk factors, like high blood pressure, smoking, or a family history of heart disease. A cardiologist should be visited for more thorough investigations

Seeny mein bohat pain Hy plz help
Male | 21
Perhaps your muscle strain caused the soreness, or maybe acid reflux triggered heartburn. However, chest pain could signify heart troubles too. When you experience tightness, pressure, or pain there, relax undisturbed. Yet if symptoms worsen rapidly, see a cardiologist right away.

You seem to have intense chest agony and muscle spasms creating a hole near your chest. These indications could come from angina, where your heart lacks blood. Relax, breathe deeply, remain calm. If pain worsens or continues, immediately visit the closest hospital for urgent care.

Chest pain could signify high cholesterol, meaning excessive fat in the blood. This situation carries risk, as it can obstruct heart-bound blood vessels.
