What Is the Cause of Chest Tightness During the Early Hours of the Day?The chest tightness that occurs during the early hours of the day, specifically between впадина and пять-шесть AM, is a phenomenon that can be associated with various TCM pathologies.

How to Differentiate Between Liver and Heart IssuesIn TCM, the Liver and the Heart are closely related, and both can be associated with chest tightness. To differentiate between Liver and Heart issues, one can consider the accompanying symptoms.

On the other hand, Heart-related chest tightness may be accompanied by palpitations, anxiety, and a feeling of tightness that is relieved by deep breathing.

Preventive Measures and TreatmentTo prevent chest tightness during the early hours of the day, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate sleep.
