I'm a bit concerned because my systolic blood pressure has been hovering around 130, but I've noticed that my diastolic is consistently above 90 or even 95. I'm really worried about why my diastolic BP is always on the higher side. Could you tell me what kind of tests or investigations might be needed for this?

I'm dealing with this dull aching pain under my left breast, near my armpit, and it's been there for about two years now. It feels a bit better if I press on it, but it's still really painful. I was put on anxiety meds, but they haven't helped at all. What could be causing this pain and is there anything else I could try?

Ecg is recommended along with serum electrolytes..A physician and ortho opinion is advised to the patient..

I just got my mom's ECG report, and it says her QRS is 80 ms, and there's something about intraventricular conduction delay. Should I be worried about this? Is there anything we can do at home to help with it?

This delay can sometimes be a sign of underlying heart conditions. It is important to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Unfortunately, there are no home remedies that can specifically address intraventricular conduction delays. It is crucial to follow the advice and treatment plan recommended by the cardiologist to ensure proper management of this condition.
