I'm really concerned about my 6-month-old daughter who has a 4 mm perimembranous VSD. Is there a chance that this VSD will close on its own, or should I be worried about any complications?

I'm just wondering if masturbation has any negative effects for someone with atrial fibrillation and hyperthyroidism. After I masturbate at night, I notice my pulse and blood pressure seem high even the next morning. Could these be linked?

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.
