I'm experiencing pain when I tilt my head towards my left shoulder. I also have thyroid issues and asthma. When I move my neck to the left, there's this pain that travels from the back of my neck to my chest. Could this be something connected to my heart?

it may not necessarily be related to your heart. It could be due to muscle strain or tension in your neck and chest area. However, given your history of thyroid issues and asthma, it is important to rule out any other potential causes. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the painful area and practicing gentle neck stretches may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried because my dad's having some mild chest pain. The doctor suggested an X-ray and then mentioned a CT-guided FNAC, but we're stuck since there aren't any clinics nearby that offer this procedure. On top of that, we're not in a strong financial position. Can you guide me on what we should do next? I'm feeling pretty lost right now.

I'm really concerned because my BP just isn't coming under control. The meds my doctor prescribed, Eslo At and Arkamin, are supposed to be taken twice daily, but my BP's still at 160110. Plus, the medications leave me feeling extremely weak, and I barely have any energy. Arkamin was originally prescribed three times a day, but I found I couldn't manage work when taking it that often, so I spoke with my doctor and now only take it twice a day. What should I do?

I've been keeping an eye on my health and just found out that my blood pressure is at 14090. My ECG report shows that my right bundle branch is blocked, and now my doctor wants me to start taking CYTOGARD and MONIT GTN 2.6. To be honest, I'm a bit nervous about starting these medications since I don't really have any symptoms. Is it really necessary to take them, or should I hold off until there's something more serious going on?
