I'm Gajendra, and I'm 30. Lately, I've been having trouble with high blood pressure and a fast pulse. What should I do about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For high blood pressure and elevated pulse, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and managing stress. Additionally, you can take medication to help control your blood pressure. I recommend taking "Losartan" at a starting dosage of 50mg once daily. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper monitoring and adjustment of your treatment plan.

View allI'm really worried because ever since I had COVID, my pulse rate has been around 100 and I've been experiencing palpitations. My doctor suggested I get an echocardiogram done, and I've attached the report here. Can you tell me if everything looks normal? I'm particularly concerned about the mention of trivial tricuspid regurgitationdoes that need treatment?
Trivial TR is a normal finding in healthy heart. Your echo is normal. Post covid palpitations are also seen in many patients. However if the symptoms are severe enough, you may need some medication.

I've recently had a TMT test done last month, and while I was on the treadmill, I started feeling really breathless and dizzy. It was kind of scary, but the doctor said the results were normal. I've got the TMT result attached. Is it common to feel like that even if the results come out okay, or should I be worried about something else?

I'm really worried about why so many people under 30, both guys and girls, seem to be getting cardiac arrests lately. What's going on, and how can we protect ourselves from this happening? I've had my 2D echo done and it came out normal, but should I still be concerned about this?
Cardiac arrest in young individuals can be caused by various factors such as genetic predisposition, underlying heart conditions (such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy), substance abuse (such as cocaine or stimulant use), infections, and structural abnormalities of the heart. To prevent cardiac arrest, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, managing stress, and getting regular check-ups with your healthcare provider. Since your 2D echo is normal, it is a good sign that your heart is functioning well. However, it is still important to continue with a healthy lifestyle and regular check-ups to monitor your heart health and prevent any potential issues in the future.
