I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. Normally, it sits around 12090, but every now and then, it'll spike to about 130100, or drop to 10080. It used to be at 10070. I'm trying to find a natural solution and wondering if Ayurveda could help manage this, as I really don't want to be on medication forever. I lead a pretty active lifestyle, and I'm really careful with my diet and regular exercise. What do you think? Is there an alternative approach I could try?

View allI've just got the COVAXIN and I'm a 21-year-old male at 80kg and 165cm. Since getting the shot, I've been feeling some discomfort in my chest area. I've been checking my heart rate, and it's averaging around 100 bpm, but I've also seen it spike to 110, 120, and even 130. I'm starting to get a bit worried about what this means. What should I do?

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure readings over the past two days. They've been around 10476, 11076, 10583, and 10366. This started after I switched my medication from Metoprolol 50 mg to Tazloc CT 406.25 about 10 days ago. Are these readings considered low? Could you please tell me what would be considered low blood pressure?
The blood pressure readings you have provided are within the normal range. Low blood pressure is typically considered to be a systolic pressure less than 90 mmHg and a diastolic pressure less than 60 mmHg. Since your readings are consistently above these values, your blood pressure is not considered low. Regarding the medication change from metoprolol to tazloc CT-406.25, it seems to be working well for you as your blood pressure readings are within the normal range. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and consult your doctor if you have any concerns
