Could Pain In Left Hamstring Be A Symptom Of Heart Issue?
Day before yesterday I had an ache on the underside of my left arm and it radiated throughout my arm. Fair amount of pain....discomfort. I actually felt a similar pain in my right arm, but not a pronounced and it did not last nearly as long on my right arm. I had zero discomfort in my chest at all. Yesterday there was nothing. Today I m having tingling feelings in my left arm...almost like it was asleep and just getting the feeling back...not painful at all...just a tingling...but now I just started to have an ache in my left hamstring. I m 47. 5 10 about 195lbs. Used to be athletic. And have had issues with my neck from football days....Can a symptom of a heart issue be a dull ache in the left hamstring?

Hello,
It is not related to cardiac problems.
As first-line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
You can go for an arterial Doppler to rule out conditions like peripheral vascular diseases.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
