Anxiety or a heart problem? It’s a question many people face when experiencing sudden chest discomfort or palpitations. 🫀🧠

Because these two conditions share an overlapping list of symptoms, it can be incredibly difficult to differentiate between them in the moment. In today’s carousel, we break down the key indicators of both, focusing on how to identify critical warning signs that require immediate medical care.

🌀 Feeling dizzy?
It could be something as simple as dehydration... but in some cases, dizziness can be a warning sign of a stroke.
💧 Dehydration may cause:
• Thirst
• Dry mouth
• Light-headedness, especially when standing
• Fatigue
🚨 A stroke may also cause dizziness, but often comes with other symptoms such as:
• Facial drooping
• Arm weakness
• Slurred speech
• Sudden vision changes
• Difficulty walking or loss of balance
Remember the FAST test:
🧑 Face – has one side dropped?
💪 Arms – can both arms be raised?
🗣️ Speech – is it slurred?
⏰ Time – call emergency services immediately if you notice any of these signs.
Knowing the difference could save a life. Swipe through to learn more.

🔍 Muscle Strain or Kidney Infection?
Not all back pain is caused by muscles. While a muscle strain often improves with rest and may feel worse with movement, pain from a kidney infection can be more serious and may come with symptoms such as:
✔️ Fever or chills
✔️ Pain in your side, back, or below the ribs
✔️ Burning or pain when urinating
✔️ Frequent urge to urinate
✔️ Feeling unwell, nauseous, or tired

If your back pain is accompanied by any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek medical advice promptly. At PortsMed, we’re here to help you get the right diagnosis and treatment when you need it.
