I'm curious about my pulse after exercising. I did a brisk walk for about 3 kilometers, which took me around 30 minutes, and when I checked my pulse rate right after, it was between 130 and 135. Is this considered normal? My resting pulse usually sits between 70 and 80. Should I be concerned?

A pulse rate of 130-135 after brisk walking is within a normal range, especially considering your resting pulse is 70-80. As long as you do not experience any symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, this pulse rate is considered normal for your level of physical activity.

View allI'm really worried because I've been experiencing shortness of breath for the past 20 days, and every time I try to breathe, it feels like there's a lot of pressure on my heart. I'm scared that my breathing might suddenly stop. Could this lead to a heart attack, or maybe it's related to COVID-19? I also feel very anxious and could use a recommendation for a good anxiety pill. I've been doing yoga and meditation daily, but it still feels like something is gripping my heart and stopping my breath. I've been following the treatment plan given to me, but I haven't noticed any improvement yet. What should I do?
Yes,continue same treatment as advised by the physician..

I'm experiencing this needle-like pain in my chest that comes and goes. Sometimes it's in my arms and hands too. I'm not sure if it's due to stress or something else, but it's been happening for the last 2 to 3 weeks. I've been on TB medication for about 6 months now, and there's also this numbness in my feet. I'm really concerned and need some guidance. I've attached my CECT report. What could be causing these symptoms?
It's important to address chest pain, especially if it is recurrent and accompanied by symptoms like numbness in your feet. Given that you are currently on tuberculosis (TB) medication, some of these medications can have side effects, including peripheral neuropathy, which may explain the numbness in your feet. The needle-like chest pain and discomfort in your arms and hands could be related to several factors, including stress, side effects from your medication, or other medical conditions. I recommend discussing these symptoms with your healthcare provider, who may consider further evaluation such as a detailed physical examination, additional blood tests to check for side effects of TB medications, and possibly an ECG or other cardiac tests to rule out any heart-related issues.

I've just gotten over COVID, and I've noticed some changes in my heart rate. When I'm at rest, it's okay around 70-95, but when I climb stairs, it spikes to between 160-165. Even when I'm just walking at a pace of 5 kmh, it's around 130-140. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be concerned?
