Hello doctor. I often have fatigue, chest pain (especially when lying on the left side), palpitations, shortness of breath. These problems often occur when the weather is cold or under stress. I went to the hospital to check, there was sinus tachycardia on the electrocardiogram, heart doppler, the valve was slightly open. May I ask, if you have chest pain, shortness of breath, what measures should you use to relieve the symptoms? I would like to thank you.

Answer
Hello. With the question of chest pain, shortness of breath, what measures should be used to relieve the symptoms? Doctor, do you play any sports? What are the physical activities that you have experienced (eg: college fitness test, playing soccer, playing badminton, ..)? Are you a person who likes sports or daily fitness activities or has a sedentary habit or even a sedentary person? Does anyone in your family have heart disease and what is it?
Because the symptoms of chest pain, shortness of breath will not be too worrisome if you have ever gone to the doctor and had an echocardiogram and an electrocardiogram. At the same time, the above symptoms occur when you are lying on your left side, the weather changes or the stress, which means it happens infrequently and when you feel tired. Therefore, the doctor has not oriented or thought of a specific disease. Therefore, you should:
Spend at least 30 minutes/day in physical activity Increase activities or exercises to help you have good physical strength and endurance. Limit drinking alcohol, carbonated, coffee, tea and say no to tobacco. Don't stay up late and get enough sleep, don't skip breakfast. If the above symptoms persist, see a cardiologist to examine and find the cause of the symptoms. You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System to get more advice from doctors.
