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?

According to me you have to measure your bp once daily and make a report after that we can make a conclusion and if it is prehypertension range we can try some lifestyle changles avoid salt tea coffee stress etc

I'm having this mild pain on the left side of my chest and left arm. It's a bit strange because my blood pressure and pulse rate are normal. It doesn't bother me when I'm walking, running, or even taking the stairs. The pain is mainly around the top left part of my chest and comes and goes, but is kind of always there. Should I be worried about this?

I'm Gajendra, and I'm 30. Lately, I've been having trouble with high blood pressure and a fast pulse. What should I do about this?

For high blood pressure and elevated pulse, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and managing stress. Additionally, you can take medication to help control your blood pressure. I recommend taking "Losartan" at a starting dosage of 50mg once daily. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper monitoring and adjustment of your treatment plan.
