Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Heart Palpitation And Sternum Area Restriction After Exertion?
Husband when exercising and getting his heartbeat to 115 starts to feel a restriction in his sternum up to the bottom of his throat - no pain at all and no other symptoms. He bought a new piece of equipment to work his chest and this started shortly thereafter. He also has damage to his Vagus nerve.
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that palpitaion with chest discomfort up to throat definitely points towards heart disease or anemia and is recommended to evaluate both.
Kindly get a CBC, Serum Ferritin, ECG and a Echocardiography done and consult back with reports.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards Dr. Bhanu Partap
