Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Do Chest Pain And Discomfort At Night Require Medical Attention?
Hi, I am 48 years old and started having chest pains migrating towards left should. I took my blood pressure and pulse. It was higher the my norm so I took a baby aspirin and after a couple hours symptoms subsided. Additionally, in the last week both hands seem to have a numb feeling and last few nights have been painful at night. Should I be concerned with this?
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that considering your age your symptoms can be cardiac and you should go for basic cardiac checkup which includes an ECG and Echocardiography and consult with reports.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards Dr Bhanu Partap
