I feel the left side of my chest is shaking

The chest is a very important part of the human body. The chest cavity protects the heart from external harm. However, an unhealthy lifestyle can cause damage to the heart, which is very detrimental to human health. Many people feel extreme chest pain. This may be a distress signal from the heart. We need to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment. So what happens if you feel the left half of your chest is shaking?

In this case, we need to consider whether it is heart vibration, wheezing caused by lung tissue, etc. If it is heart vibration, an echocardiogram can be performed to check whether the blood flow in the heart and surrounding areas is normal.

Wheezes are additional respiratory sounds that are high-pitched, musical, grinding, or groaning in nature. Wheezing is a type of dry rales. Occurs due to airflow through narrowed airways. Wheezing is characterized by a high pitch, a musical sound like a vibrating wire, a long duration, and being obvious during exhalation but basically disappearing during inhalation. When bronchial asthma attacks, wheezing will inevitably occur. At this time, in addition to the widespread bronchiolar spasm, the intensity of the wheezing will be greater if it is accompanied by swelling of the bronchiolar mucosa and retention of secretions in the lumen.

examine

Examine the patient's nose and mouth for congestion, discharge, or signs of infection. If there is sputum, collect a sample for examination. Check for cyanosis, pallor, clammyness, lumps, pain, bumps, swelling, jugular veins, and enlarged lymph nodes. Check the chest for abnormal shape and asymmetric movement and determine whether the trachea is in the midline. Dull or too clear sound on percussion, dry rales, moist rales and pleural friction rubs on auscultation. Chest X-ray, arterial blood gas analysis, pulmonary function tests, and sputum culture were performed as appropriate.
