I'm really concerned about my mom. She's got a heart rate that's sitting at 100 bpm. What can we do to bring it down to a normal range? Could you suggest any steps, actions, or medications that might help?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
To lower her heart rate to a normal level, she can try relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga. It is also important for her to stay hydrated, avoid caffeine and nicotine, and get an adequate amount of sleep. If these lifestyle changes do not help, she can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol to help lower her heart rate.

My mom's ultrasound showed a poor acoustic window because of her body size. The doctor mentioned it might affect the results. I'm really worried does this mean she'll need surgery or can medications help her get better? What are our options here?
We need to see all her reports, examine her once and look into the gravity on her symptoms to decide the course of treatment best for her.

I'm really worried because I've been having this chest pain for the last 40 days. It used to be constant, but now it just comes and goes. I feel this heaviness in my left chest, and then it moves to the right. Sometimes there's this sharp pinch that lasts like two seconds, and I'm also burping a lot when I sit down. I've already done an ECG, which I've attached. Can you give me any advice or suggest any medication?
Based on your symptoms and ECG findings, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. However, considering the description of your pain and symptoms, it could also be related to acid reflux or gastritis. I recommend starting with an antacid medication like **Omeprazole** 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take **Simethicone** for relief from burping. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
