I'm really worried because my blood pressure is reading 140100. I know that's considered high, and I'm wondering what medicine I should be taking for it. Is this something I need to be urgently concerned about? Should I see a doctor right away?

I'm experiencing chest pain after every time I have intercourse, and I'm starting to worry. I have RHD, so I'm not sure if this is normal or if it's putting extra pressure on my heart. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Having chest pain after intercourse can be concerning, especially for a patient with Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD). It is important to rule out any serious underlying causes for the chest pain. In your case, it is possible that the physical exertion during intercourse is putting extra strain on your heart, leading to chest pain. To help alleviate the chest pain and reduce the strain on your heart, you can take Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg sublingually every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss your symptoms and determine the best course of action.
