Cardiologist 's  Response
Hi,

This again indicates that there is nerve compression somewhere leading to your symptoms. So you need to be assessed with X-ray spine and may need MRI. This may be due to minor nerve compression on one side which may be treated with physiotherapy and medicines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode,
Cardiologist
