Hi,
The results of the tests support the exclusion of the heart problem. Still, ECG would help in compete for the exclusion of coronary heart problem. Muscle pull would go in few days with prescribed medicines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
