I've just gotten over COVID, and I've noticed some changes in my heart rate. When I'm at rest, it's okay around 70-95, but when I climb stairs, it spikes to between 160-165. Even when I'm just walking at a pace of 5 kmh, it's around 130-140. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be concerned?

I've been having this nagging pain in my left arm for the past two nights, and it went away for a day but then came back. Now it's in my upper shoulder and arm area. Should I be worried about this?

Left arm pain that started at night and now is also present in the upper shoulder and arm area could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, nerve compression, or even cardiac issues. It is important to monitor the pain and seek medical attention if it persists or worsens. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for relief. If the pain continues, I recommend consulting a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm a 33-year-old guy who hits the gym pretty regularly. I had my blood pressure checked around 2 p.m. and it was 140 over 80. Is that normal? Should I be concerned?

A blood pressure reading of 14080 is slightly elevated. For individuals under 60 years old, the ideal blood pressure is typically considered to be below 12080. Since you are physically active and regularly go to the gym, lifestyle modifications can be the first step in managing your blood pressure. However, if your blood pressure remains consistently elevated, medication may be necessary. I recommend you try to incorporate more cardiovascular exercise and a low-sodium diet into your routine. If needed, you can consider taking medications like Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
