I'm a 24-year-old guy and I've been told I'm obese, with a BMI of 33.4. I had an echocardiogram done about six months ago, and fortunately, everything looked normal. I'm really trying to keep an eye on my heart health, so I'm curioushow often should I be getting an echocardiogram to make sure everything stays okay?

I want to understand if digital blood pressure machines are reliable. Lately, my readings are often above 14090, though sometimes they drop lower. Should I trust these numbers, or do you think I need to check in with a doctor?
digital blood pressure machines are generally accurate if used correctly. However, it is important to ensure that you are using the machine properly, such as positioning the cuff at heart level and following the instructions provided with the device. Variations in blood pressure readings can occur due to factors like stress, caffeine intake, or even the time of day. If you consistently see readings above 14090, it is advisable to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult a doctor for further evaluation. In case of high blood pressure, medications like Losartan 50mg or Amlodipine 5mg may be prescribed to help manage it."
