What Makes One Feel That The Heart Is Being Squeezed?
Hi. Sometimes my heart feels like it is getting squeezed, and the my chest tightens up and my left arm feels relly heavy. I do not have any burning sensation in my stomach, my stomach- as far as i know- has nothing to do with this. I would appreciate help soon because i am worried about this

Hello,
Please let me know your age, if any risk factors for cardiac illness like obesity, smoking, family history, or hypertension. These symptoms are very much suggestive of heart disease and you should get yourself evaluated. Get Ecg, echo and tmt done if needed. You need to be started on medicine as early as possible. Also get lipid profile and sugars tested once. Till then you can have tab Sorbitrate whenever you have squeezing in chest.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode
