Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I think I have a minor heart problem. I cant exercise that much but when I do I have shortness of breath and chess pain. When I lift heavy objects, I can feel some type of strain in my neck and my face. It feels like a lot of blood rushing through my neck and face. What can cause these problems? I am going to see a heart doctor soon.
It can be either your heart for which you should get echo and ECG done or your lungs if you have asthma or your capacity has come down because of smoking. Also it can be cause of low hemoglobin. So get that tested too and if that's the case take iron tablets.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Ankit
