This can cause pain known as angina. It's a symptom of heart disease but typically does not cause permanent damage to the heart. It is, though, a sign that you are a candidate for a heart attack at some point in the future. The chest pain may spread to your arm, shoulder, jaw, or back.
Frequent bowel movements. Definition. There's not a generally accepted clinical definition for frequent bowel movements. Most people consider several bowel movements a day to at least be unusual, particularly if this pattern is a change from what's normal. However, if nothing else about your bowel movements is different â no loose, watery stools, abdominal cramping or bloody stool â the change is probably not a sign of any illness.
Having frequent bowel movements means that you are having more bowel movements than is normal for you. Often, frequent bowel movements are accompanied by diarrhea, the passage of loosely formed stool. Diarrhea is a common condition. Adults in the United States average one episode of diarrhea per year, and children average two bouts per year (Source: NDDIC).
