I'm having some discomfort in my chest when I masturbate, especially in the middle and left side. It doesn't hurt a lot, just a little, but it's noticeable. At first, I thought it might be because I was overweight, so I lost some weight and now I'm down to 67 kg, but the pain is still there. I even tried stopping for a month, thinking it was because I was doing it too often, like 3-4 times a week, but the pain came back when I started again. I'm a bit embarrassed to talk to my friends or family about this, but is there something else that could be causing it?

I'm really worried because my wife is 9 months pregnant and her recent test results showed something about tricuspid TR being mild to moderate and that her RA and RV are dilated. Does this indicate a serious problem? We're really not sure what to make of this and would appreciate any advice you might have.

Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and dilated right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV) can be concerning during pregnancy, but the severity and management depend on various factors. It is important to follow up with your obstetrician and a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In some cases, medication may be prescribed to help with the heart condition. Your wife may be prescribed a medication like furosemide to reduce fluid retention and workload on the heart. The dosage will depend on her specific condition and should be determined by her healthcare provider. Regular monitoring and follow-up appointments are essential to ensure the well-being of both your wife and the baby.

I'm looking at my cholesterol numbers and I'm a bit worried. My total cholesterol is 226.3 mgdL, LDL is 145.7 mgdL, and triglycerides are 190.5 mgdL. Is this something I should be really concerned about? What does this mean for my health?

Cholesterol total of 226.3mgdl, LDL cholesterol of 145.7mgdl, and triglycerides of 190.5mgdl indicate slightly elevated levels, which may increase the risk of heart disease. To help lower these levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower LDL cholesterol and Fenofibrate 145mg once daily to lower triglycerides. Additionally, lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management can also be beneficial.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last six years, and I'm currently taking Olmesar 20 H. This past week, my blood pressure readings have been fluctuating between 13590 and 14595. What can I do to help lower my blood pressure? I'm a bit concerned about these numbers.

It seems like your blood pressure is slightly elevated despite taking Olmesar 20 H. To help lower your blood pressure, you can try increasing your physical activity, reducing your salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and managing stress. In addition, you may need a change in medication dosage or a different medication. I recommend consulting your doctor to adjust your treatment plan.
