I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

I've had a bit of a scare recently while doing the dishes. I accidentally cut my finger on a piece of glass. Initially, it seemed alright after rinsing it with water, but then things got weird. I started feeling short of breath, my head went all dizzy, and just as I grabbed a napkin for the wound, my vision went dark like I couldn't see anything. I almost collapsed but managed to lie down on my bed, and then it all just went away. Does this sound like a serious issue to you?

You may have experienced a vasovagal response, which can sometimes occur in response to pain or stress. However, given the symptoms you described, such as difficulty breathing, dizziness, and vision changes, it is important to seek medical attention to rule out any serious underlying issues. In the meantime, you can clean the wound with antiseptic solution and apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Keep the wound covered with a sterile bandage and monitor for any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or discharge.
