View allI'm really worried about my dad's blood pressure. It's been 18090 even after I checked it twice, and then an hour later, it was 15088. He always brushes off his health issues, and I don't know how to help him keep his heart rate and blood pressure normal. What should I do?
High blood pressure can lead to serious health issues, so it's important to manage it properly. Here are some steps you can take to help maintain his blood pressure. Encourage him to follow a healthy diet low in sodium and high in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. This can help lower blood pressure. You can also recommend the use of a salt substitute like LoSalt. Regular exercise is important for managing blood pressure. Encourage him to engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week. Stress management techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga can help lower blood pressure. Ensure he is taking his medications regularly if prescribed by a doctor. Common medications for high blood pressure include Amlodipine 5mg and Losartan 50mg. Encourage him to limit alcohol intake and quit smoking if he does. Regular monitoring of blood pressure at home and keeping a record of readings can help track progress and identify any patterns. Remember, these are general recommendations and it's important for your father to follow up with his healthcare provider for personalized advice and treatment.

I'm a bit worried about some stuff I've been experiencing. Sometimes when I talk loudly, I feel this pain in my chest. I usually masturbate maybe twice or thrice a month, often while watching porn or imagining naked women, and that always made my heart race. Recently, I've tried to stop watching but still experience the pain whenever I shout. Could there be a link between these things, or should I be concerned about the pain when speaking loudly?

Ive been getting this warm sensation near my left ribs and just below my breast lately. I went for a master checkup and had an ECG and 2D Echo done, and everything came back normal. But I couldn't do the TMT test because of an ACL ligament tear, so walking on the treadmill isn't an option for me. Do you think I need the TMT or any other tests to make sure it's not a heart issue?
Since your ECG and 2D Echo reports are normal, it is less likely that the heat feeling near your left ribs and below your breast is related to a heart issue. However, considering your symptoms, it may still be beneficial to undergo further testing to rule out any other potential causes. One option could be a CT scan or MRI to evaluate the area near your left ribs and below your breast for any abnormalities. Additionally, a consultation with a gastroenterologist may also be helpful to assess for any gastrointestinal issues that could be causing your symptoms.
