Why is hypertension a risk factor for diabetes?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Hypertension might not cause Diabetes directly but increases the risk. People with high blood pressure usually have insulin resistance leading to Diabetes compared to those with typical blood pressure.

I'm dealing with some pretty persistent pain in my jaw, neck, shoulder, back, and left arm that I've had for the last three months, and the jaw pain just started about a week ago. About 25 days back, I had an ECG, TMT, and troponin blood test, and they all came back normal. Before that, three months ago, I had earlier done an ECG, TMT, and ECHO test, and those were normal too. But the pain hasn't gotten any better, and it's really stressing me out. Can you suggest what I should do next in terms of treatment or any other tests I need to consider?
Based on your symptoms and normal test results, it sounds like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain and tension. I recommend trying over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain relief. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel containing diclofenac to the affected areas. For muscle relaxation, you can try a muscle relaxant medication such as cyclobenzaprine. It is important to maintain good posture, practice relaxation techniques, and consider physical therapy to help alleviate your symptoms. If the pain persists, further evaluation by a specialist such as a physiotherapist or orthopedic doctor may be necessary.
