Hello Nazrana Ji,

A heart tumour, although rare, requires careful evaluation and treatment by specialists. The best approach depends on the type, size, and location of the tumor, as well as your wife’s overall health. Heart tumours are usually either benign (non-cancerous), like myxomas, or malignant (cancerous), like angiosarcomas. Treatment options often include:

1. Surgery is usually the primary treatment for benign tumours, removing the tumour and preventing complications. Cardiac surgeons typically perform these surgeries, and outcomes are generally positive for benign cases.

2. Doctors may sometimes recommend close monitoring if the tumour is small and does not cause symptoms. Medications may also be prescribed to manage symptoms or prevent complications.

3. If the tumour is malignant, treatment may involve a combination of surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy. In some cases, a heart transplant may be considered. Additionally, if fluid buildup in the chest is causing discomfort, doctors may insert tubes to help drain the fluid and relieve symptoms.

We recommend consulting with a cardiac surgeon to discuss the best approach for your wife’s condition.

At HexaHealth, we can help you connect with highly qualified specialists and guide you through the process.

Hello Seema Ji,

Sudden chest pain radiating to the back and resolving on its own in 10-15 minutes, especially when it's recurring, could potentially indicate a few medical conditions. Some possible causes include:

1. Angina: This occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen-rich blood, causing temporary chest pain that may radiate to the back, shoulders, or arms. It typically resolves with rest.

2. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): Acid reflux can sometimes cause chest pain that radiates to the back, mimicking heart-related pain.

3. Musculoskeletal Pain: Muscle strain, especially in the chest or back, can cause similar symptoms, often resolving quickly after movement.

Given the symptoms, it’s essential to rule out any heart-related conditions. Immediate consultation with a healthcare provider and tests such as an ECG, echocardiogram, TMT (stress test), and possibly a chest CT scan can help pinpoint the cause. It’s especially important if this pain is associated with exertion or shortness of breath. In the meantime, try to note any triggers for the pain and avoid heavy physical exertion until you get checked.

Hello Seema ji,

Aapke heart aur arm mein 10 minute ke liye pain hona aur phir apne aap theek ho jaana ek serious issue ho sakta hai, khas kar agar yeh baar-baar hota hai. Yeh symptoms angina ya heart-related problem ki taraf ishaara kar sakte hain, jisme dil tak khoon ka supply kam ho jaata hai.

Aapko kuch zaroori tests karvane chahiye taaki iske peeche ki wajah ka pata lagaya ja sake:

1. ECG (Electrocardiogram): Isse dil ki electrical activity ko check kiya jaata hai, aur yeh pata lagane mein madad karta hai ki koi heart attack ya arrhythmia to nahi ho raha.

2. TMT (Treadmill Test): Yeh test heart ko stress ke dauran monitor karta hai aur angina ya heart blockage ka pata lagata hai.

3. Echocardiogram: Isse dil ki structure aur function ka detailed check-up kiya jaata hai.

4. Blood Tests: Isme cholesterol levels, sugar levels, aur heart ke liye specific markers (jaise troponin) ko check kiya jaata hai.

Jaldi se apne doctor se sampark karein aur unke guidance mein yeh tests karvaayen. Agar aapko ye pain exertion ke dauran ya shortness of breath ke saath hota hai, to yeh ek emergency bhi ho sakti hai, isliye delay mat karein.

Hello Mr Aman,

High cholesterol se heart disease ka risk badh jaata hai, lekin heart problems start hone mein kitna time lagta hai, yeh har insaan pe depend karta hai. Genetics, lifestyle, aur overall health jaise factors bhi isme role play karte hain. Agar cholesterol levels lambe samay tak high rahte hain, toh arteries mein plaque buildup (atherosclerosis) ho sakta hai, jo aage chalke heart complications ka kaaran ban sakta hai.

Heart arteries ki health check karne ke liye Coronary Angiography ek bahut hi reliable test hai. Isse coronary arteries ka detailed view milta hai aur blockages ya narrowing detect karne mein madad milti hai, jo heart issues ka kaaran ban sakte hain.

Hello Mr Aman,

Achha hai ki aap apni diet ka dhyan rakh rahe ho, lekin paya soup ya bone broth mein fat ki maatra zyada hota hai, toh agar aapne exercise nahi ki hai ACL tear ke wajah se, toh cholesterol levels badhne ka chance ho sakta hai. Cholesterol test ke bina exact pata lagana mushkil hai ki aapko heart disease ka risk kitna hai. Isliye, aapke liye yeh achha hoga ki ek baar apna cholesterol test karwa lo. Isse aapko apni heart health ka idea milega aur zaroori steps le paoge, agar kuch changes ki zaroorat ho.
