View allI'm a bit concerned about my recent echo report. It shows that I have mild tricuspid regurgitation. The doctor mentioned it can't be reversed, but is there any way to keep it from getting worse? I really want to make sure it stays stable and doesn't progress. Any advice would be appreciated.
Tricuspid regurgitation is a condition where the tricuspid valve in the heart does not close properly, causing blood to leak backwards. While it may not be possible to reverse tricuspid regurgitation completely, there are ways to manage and prevent its progression. One common approach is to manage the underlying cause, such as heart failure or pulmonary hypertension, which can help reduce the severity of the regurgitation. In terms of medication, your doctor may prescribe ACE inhibitors, diuretics, or beta-blockers to help manage symptoms and prevent further damage to the heart. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments to monitor the condition. Additionally, lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking can also help prevent the progression of tricuspid regurgitation.

I've been having some chest issues and I went to the doctor who said it's just my bone and everything's normal, so he prescribed Pan 20 for 10 days before meals once a day, Bandy medicine, and a vitamin D sachet to take once a week. But I'm still a bit worried because I sometimes feel chest pain when I take a deep breath, and in the mornings on my left side. The pain's really sharp, but it only lasts about 45 seconds and happens maybe 6 or 7 times a day. I had anxiety about three years ago, and I also sleep on my stomach. Could that be related or something I should be more concerned about? Any advice would be really helpful.
It is important to follow up with your doctor regarding the chest pain you are experiencing, especially if it is recurring multiple times a day. The sharp pain in the left chest that lasts for a few seconds could be due to various reasons, including musculoskeletal issues, anxiety, or even gastrointestinal problems. In the meantime, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relief medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the chest pain. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is crucial to seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

I'm a 22-year-old male and recently had a panic attack that lasted for three days on September 6, 2017. Ever since then, I've been noticing that even the smallest tasks make my heart rate go way up. I got an ECG done, and it showed sinus rhythm and an incomplete right bundle branch block. I'm really not sure what to do next. Should I be worried? What steps should I take from here?
