Does Pain In The Hand Indicate Heart Problem?

Hi Doctor! I am 54 years old lady. Most of the time I have pain on my left hand specially around my fingures. Rarly it goes to my right hand fingures and also to both feet. Does heart problem goes to fingures and feet? Best regards. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,

Pain in the feet is not characteristic for heart problems. If you have pain in your left hand , arm or fingers while climbing stairs, which relieves with rest, it is heart pain, but if you just have the pain always, especially if it get worse with movements, it is not a heart pain.

Take care
