I'm monitoring my blood pressure with an Omron machine, and it reads 100140, but my pulse is normal. I heard that blood pressure can stay high in winter. Should I think about consulting a doctor for this?

Seasonal changes can indeed affect blood pressure levels in some individuals. If your blood pressure consistently remains at 140100 mmHg, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation. You can consider taking antihypertensive medication like Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper assessment and personalized treatment plan.

I've had a normal ECG and ECCO test, and even the treadmill stress test was normal. My blood sugar level and lipid profile are fine, but my cholesterol's high. I'm still having pain in my lower chest and a bit in my left hand. I'm really concerned. What's going on with me?
The pain in your lower chest and left hand could be due to musculoskeletal issues or possibly related to acid reflux. To alleviate the pain in your lower chest, you can take over-the-counter medications like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. For the pain in your left hand, you can try applying a topical pain relief gel like Volini gel and avoid any activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
