What Does This ECG Report Showing Inferior Wall ST Changes Indicate?

During a routine medical checkup my ECG says "Inferior wall ST changes" what does it means? Is there any serious issue with my heart? All other tests including cholosterol level are normal.
You need examination and more investigations
Detailed Answer:
Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
It may or may not be an issue…
ECG should NOT be interpreted in isolation – it should be correlated with the total clinical picture.
It could be a normal variant / chamber enlargement / muscle hypertrophy / reduced blood flow / conduction system (nerves) and so on
You need more investigations –
ECHOcardiogram is necessary to see the heart valves (Mitral Valve Prolapse) / heart muscle (Cardiomyopathy) and heart function (Ejection fraction, wall motion abnormality) / clots...
TMT – Treadmill exercise ECG; may be with thallium isotope – is necessary to evaluate ischemia (reduced blood flow / Coronary Artery Disease)
Take care
Good luck
