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.

I'm really puzzled because my ECG and echo results came back normal according to the doctor, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and sometimes pain in my left hand. I've attached my ECG report here. What might be causing these symptoms if all the tests show nothing wrong?

I've recently recovered from COVID, and I've noticed my pulse rate is usually between 55-59, but sometimes it jumps to around 60. Is this something I should be worried about? I've been on Ecosprin for the past five years after having an angiogram. Just wondering if these numbers are normal or if there's anything I should be cautious about.

A pulse rate between 60-100 beats per minute is generally considered normal. A pulse rate of 55-60 may be on the lower side, but it can still be considered normal for some individuals, especially those who are physically fit. Since you have a history of taking Ecosprin after an angiogram, it's important to note that Ecosprin (aspirin) can sometimes lower the heart rate. If you are not experiencing any other symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath, a pulse rate of 55-60 may not be concerning. However, it's always a good idea to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and monitoring.
