Common Questions and Answers about Finger pain heart

finger

Avatar n tn The pattern of your pain resembles heart pain. Heart pain can go along entire left arm toward the small finger. It is related to exercise, stress, cold. Quite reliable diagnosis is by trying nytroglicerine tablets right after the pain. If this helps in few minutes, it's probably heart related. GERD goes with stomach burning, heartburn, possible burping. Gastric pain is worse after meals, duodenal pain is worse between meals and during the night.
Avatar n tn A number of things can cause it, but if you suspect it might be your heart, you should go to the emergency room immediately! Costochondritis and esophageal spasms can also give chest pain & difficulty breathing can also make it feel tight I believe.
Avatar m tn jpmezart, While all things are possible, heart attacks are extremely rare in patients of your age. Chest pain from a heart attack is classically a severe pain in the chest that radiates to both the jaw and/or left arm. It is diagnosed with both an ECG and blood tests that look for heart damage. I would advise you to find a good primary care physician who can talk about symptoms and devise a treatment plan tailored to you.

Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with MS in August of this year and this finger pain was one of the earliest symptoms after I fainted in Feb (but had no idea that was anything serious) - I went to a rheumatologist for the finger pain and he couldn't find anything but did think I had carpal tunnel and the nerve test for that is what started me on the path to a MS diagnosis.
Avatar n tn rightt hand ring finger still swellen and still pain after a month is the knuckel broken?
432737 tn?1358549432 I'm just over 34 weeks. For the last week or so, I've been waking up in the middle of the night and morning to really bad finger pain that lasts for aw hile! It's hard to bend my fingers and sometimes they make a popping feeling when I bend them. Middle three fingers on each hand are the worst. During the day, they're not "as" sore, but still a little. I can't seem to find anything about this in my baby books. My hands don't look swollen. Anyone else have this??
Avatar n tn I was pulling open my cars jammed ashtray, it was stuck so I pulled harder and my 2 fingers....
Avatar n tn Thanks for the response! Since I am only in pain when pressure is applied to the finger I'll probably hold off on taking the Naproxen unless the pain gets worse.
Avatar n tn if your palms and finger tips looks as if it has blood clots is this a early warning of a heart condition
Avatar f tn The ER is designed to rule out the life-threatening is not so great for anything else. May I suggest about the difficulty swallowing and chest pain, you may want to get a referral (which I think your family doctor will go along with) to a gastrointestinal specialist to get diagnostic testing to confirm or rule out the diagnosis of acid reflux? Esophageal spasms can feel like you are having a heart problem.
917202 tn?1243322728 ll ask about an ECG...Im hoping my arm pain is not related to my heart. But do you think that chest contractions and cause numbness/tingling in my left hand/finger tips too?
Avatar f tn Thank you for your reply! The area is not sensitive to touch it just seems to be inside that hurts! And I'vewoke up today, still with my cough but as I cough it doesn't seem to be hurting my heart at the moment so finger crossed its getting better! I'm going doctor today so I'll just mention it to them and see what they think aswell :) Thanks again!
Avatar f tn then found a Dr that would see me without insurance on thursday and he sent me straight back... they checked my heart enzymes and told me I had a heart attack... and my enzymes continued to climb during the night. A heart cath on saturday morning showed damaged heart muscle and a collapsed small artery that they could not stent. I am home on medication now.
Avatar m tn by doing so, you probably do not have a heart issue. Real heart pain is something you cannot literally put your finger on, for reasons having to do with embryology. I would guess that some muscular movement you made in response to fright quite literally strained or tore a little muscle in your chest wall. However, since you are genuinely worried about this, I strongly suggest you make an appointment with your regular doctor to discuss how you are feeling.
Avatar f tn Remember, that early morning is the best time to measure your resting heart rate. Follow the steps given below to measure your resting heart rate. After you wake up give sometime to your body to rest for a while. Do not suddenly start measuring the RHR after waking up. Lie down at least for 15 minutes before measuring the RHR. There are two methods of measuring RHR. One is to measure radial pulse (wrist) and the other is to measure carotid pulse (neck).

Looking at the lines on your palm and little finger – No 1 is the heart line, no 2 is the line at the bottom of little finger, No 3 is the next line up on the little finger, No 4 is the top line on the little finger. Match the lines of No. 1 (i. e. heart lines as per Astrology). If the Solar Plexus is in order, the upper line in little finger No. 4 will match.
