Recently Answered Questions on Left side discomfort under ribs

Since July, I have been having some muscle weakness on and off, especially in the arms. Since August, I have started getting mild/moderate and sometimes severe pain in my joints - collar bone, ankle, elbow, ribs, along the spine. Vitamin D is normal. ESR is 1. All other blood tests are normal. Been to a few docs - rheumatologist, neurologist, Orthopedic - can't find a cause. Last few days I have had alot of pain and weakness in my fingers also. It's difficult to hold a phone for more than 10-15 minutes. Everytime I exercise even a little, my whole body hurts. Few months back I used to exercise more than this and never had any pain. What could be the cause?

I am attaching my x-ray reports for reference. Need your expert advise. Thank you so much.

From last two days, I am having a tolerable but continued pain on my left part of chest which includes muscles above rib cage, neck,shoulder, upper arm. It started out as a uncomfortable fast rate heartbeat and then the pain distributed to the nearby connecting body area when I tried to massage the muscles at that moment. Slowly the heartbeat decreased but there is a slight prolonged pain (like cramp) in the muscles of my left upper chest region (e.g. neck, shoulder, upper arm, and center part of left chest) I am an above average obese. 5 ft 9inch with 105kg wt. I have never had any history of chronic illnesses. Is this alarming? What should I do. Was this event normal or is it an example of cardiac malformed behavior?

I got left back pain this march and that cause heavy chest and breathlessness. I visited a doctor here in MS Ramaya College Hospital and did X-Ray and ECG. He said everything is normal. Gave me some pain killer and pain relief ointment. But It didn't helped. I went to my native (Guwahati) and visited another doctor and showed him the earlier reports. He said do CT-Scan and Some blood test. I did and he said every thing looks fine. And gave me some calcium tablet Hydrochloride tablets . I also used heading pad on my back. The back pain reduced but a stiffness is there. But my heavy chest is there and I feel pain in my ribs. Both said muscle strain. But whatever it is I need a fix. Please give some advice. Thank You

Hi, Had occassional palpitns frm past 2yr. In jan21 chest discomfort felt freqently. So in feb21 did full body checks & things are normal (ecg, echo are normal). Later in aug21 started some moderate stomach pain & did abdominal usg, ct scan results were normal. In dec21 heaviness/discomfort in chest increased so again did ecg(normal), echo found Mild MVP with trivial MR. Dr suggested to take betacaptr20. Now I feel symptoms like -Discomfort, heaviness in chest while resting. Pounding hrt beat if I do some extra work. -Also now having pain in sternum area while pressing that area & while rotating my neck, shoulders. -Occasional stomach pain. So pls suggest: 1. Does mild MVP MR cause these symptoms or anything else to be ruled out. 2. Is there any link btw stomach pain & MVP. 3. Does MVP cause weight loss(lost 6kg in 6 months) 4. Does MVP cause sternum area pain. 5. Feb21 Echo was normal but Dec21 Echo found Mild mvp,mr. Will MVP develop in 8 mnths. 6. What steps to be followed next. Tnq
