I'm feeling some pain in my left chest, right where the ribs are, just under the man breast. It gets more painful when I press that spot, but I don't have any issues with breathing. My cholesterol was borderline high in my recent health check-up, but my Echo 2D was normal about 20 days ago. The pain level is pretty low, like a 1 out of 10, but I'm just a bit worried about why it's happening. Should I be concerned? Any insights would be really helpful.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been taking Telpres 40 for her blood pressure, but it's still 170100. It's been sticking around 150100 for a while now. I'm not sure what to do, could you give some advice?

Along with telpres 40 other medicines need to be added, after clinical evaluation.

I'm having this recurring pain in my chest, like near my heart. It comes and goes on its own. Should I be worried about this?

It is important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause of your chest pain. However, based on your description, it could be related to conditions such as angina or acid reflux. For temporary relief of chest pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. If the pain persists or worsens, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

I've been noticing my heart feels like it's pounding pretty hard, especially after eating. Before meals, my blood pressure seems normal, but once I've had something to eat, it shoots up to around 130. Could this be linked to any vitamin deficiencies I'm not aware of?

The symptoms you are experiencing may be related to a condition called postprandial hypotension, which is a sudden drop in blood pressure after eating. To help manage this, you can try increasing your fluid and salt intake, eating smaller meals more frequently, and avoiding high-carb or high-sugar foods. Additionally, you may benefit from taking medications like Midodrine to help stabilize your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
