Is there a way to manage mild TR or keep it stable over my lifetime? I'm 30 now and I'm really wondering how I can handle this situation.

For mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR), the focus is usually on managing any underlying conditions that may be causing the TR. In most cases, mild TR does not require specific treatment and can be managed by addressing the underlying cause. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. In some cases, medications such as diuretics or ACE inhibitors may be prescribed to help manage symptoms or prevent the condition from worsening. However, the specific treatment plan will depend on the underlying cause of the TR and should be determined by a healthcare professional. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is important to monitor the condition and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. If you have any concerns or notice any changes in your symptoms, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been having this chest pain, mostly on the left side, but sometimes it just spreads everywhere around my chest. I've also been getting lightheaded, like my balance is off, and my ears keep popping and ringing. One weird thing is I randomly had testicle pain while I was at work the other day, plus headaches and muscle pain in my neck and jaw. I know I have anxiety which gives me panic attacks, but this feels different. Do you think it's all connected, or is there something else going on?

You may be experiencing symptoms that could be related to multiple issues. The chest pain, lightheadedness, balance issues, ear symptoms, testicle pain, headaches, and muscle pain in your neck and jaw could be related to various conditions.
