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.

View allSo, I'm 14 and have been masturbating for about a year now. It feels really good when I do it, but afterwards, I notice that my heartbeat feels louder and sometimes it races. Can you tell me if that's normal or if I should be concerned?
It's important to know that changes in heart rate can be influenced by various factors, including anxiety, stress, and physical activity. However, if you're concerned about these symptoms, I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness to help manage your symptoms.

I'm a 29-year-old male and I've just got my blood pressure checked and it's 140100. Honestly, I dont feel any symptoms like having high blood pressure, but I thought I would look into it further. I did a lipid profile test as well, and here are the results: total cholesterol is 244, HDL is 54, LDL is 146, VLDL is 44, and triglycerides are 232. Am I in a position where I should consider starting medication for this? I'm kind of worried and I'd appreciate any advice you can give.
Based on your blood pressure reading and lipid profile results, it is important to take steps to manage your cardiovascular health. With your age and lipid profile results, it is advisable to start medication to help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. I recommend starting a statin medication such as Atorvastatin to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels. Additionally, you can consider starting an antihypertensive medication such as Amlodipine to help manage your blood pressure. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your blood pressure and cholesterol levels while on these medications. Making lifestyle changes such as adopting a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking can also greatly benefit your cardiovascular health.
