ok this is super weird and freaking me the fuck out. I’m laying in bed and I can hear my heart squeaking (thats the only word I can really think of to describe it) when it beats. I can hear it only when its really quiet. wtf is it? all the years of smoking/drinking/being overweight catching up?
any suggestions? anyone else have a heart squeak? what was your remedy?
The physical examination focuses on careful listening through a stethoscope for the scratchy sounds called a pericardial rub, which are produced by heart muscle rubbing against the inflamed pericardium.
